Austin Mayor Kirk Watson regularly uses private email for official business (www.kut.org)

A spokesperson for the mayor told KUT that Watson does not like Outlook, the email program city staff use. He has instead opted to conduct some mayoral business on a personal Gmail account. “Some people communicate with me on non-City of Austin accounts and I sometimes use non-City accounts,” Watson said via the spokesperson. But in doing so, the mayor appears to be violating city policy.

Well he will learn the hard way when his entire gmail account is subpoenaed at some point and made public. Don't mix personal and work together.
