The transition sources said they were surprised about the emails because they have been in touch with Mueller's team and have cooperated.
The sources say that transition officials assumed that Mueller would come calling, and had sifted through the emails and separated the ones they considered privileged. But the sources said that was for naught, since Mueller has the complete cache from the dozen accounts.
