View the e-mail header...usually by right clicking the e-mail and choosing options. Find the sent from area and there is usually an IP listed. If the message has been sent from Hotmail or Google, there's really no way to trace where the e-mail came from.

and more specifically, you can plug that ip in and run a "tracert" command to find the server it came from, the server names usually can give you a clue as to where they are.
or you can put the IP in a site like this or a program like neotrace, and it will show you visually: [url]http://visualiptrace.visualware.com/[/url] |

Although I'm not familiar with the name of the software, I've read that there is a tracing program you can run and that will monitor inbound traffic during a conversation and possibly give you an IP address associated with a contact.
If someone knows the name of the software or is familiar with the method I'm referring to or a different method that will give the same result, please post. Brian |

it's not likely you will find that kind of information
even when you trace an email using the header information, you can really only trace it back to the server that sent the email you would have to have access to the email server's logs to see the ip of the person who actually sent the email the same holds true with messenger stuff, you are talking to the messenger relay server, that server is being connected to by the user, i can't imagine that server is somehow making the ip of that person available... |

I am using Sprint mobile broadband (sprint card) and i just did an email test. In the header info it revelead my IP address.
Received from: 12-205-345-67.area1.spcsdns.net (i changed the IP for this post) But you can see it carries over your IP address to the receiver of an email. |

yeah, I've done some more investigative work with email headers and found that to be true
I've attempted to trace an email in the past and was only given limited information, which is what I based my post on. |

On Windows Live Hotmail you can, but i am not sure if the IP address is right. To do that you just right click the message then click "View Source"
