Those versions had been marked by Lindholm as "Attorney Work Product" and "Google Confidential," and Google's senior counsel, Ben Lee, was shown as a recipient on the "cc" line.
 
Unfortunately for Lindholm and Google, eight additional drafts of the email had been automatically saved on Lindholm's computer before he added the work product and confidential designations and the names of the addressees. The search methodology used by the world leader in online search failed to flag those drafts even though their content was nearly identical to the two versions Google's lawyers had already identified as privileged..."
