Thank you for the clarification and the specificity. Your efforts to work through the request are appreciated.

Let me try to clarify my initial request. I am asking for all emails SENT BY Brenna Bird. All emails she received can be excluded. Can it be that she personally sent 71,000 emails? That seems so high it might be counting a broader set of records than what I'm seeking.

Thank you for this detailed response. To suit your issues, I will narrow my request to the final 50 emails sent from each of the two accounts prior to Attorney Bird leaving her office in Guthrie County. Would that be doable without a fee?
