looking to find out how to tell origin of emails?

Look at the full headers of the email.  Look for the X-Originating-IP.  Search that IP # on http://www.arin.net/whois/  It will show you info on their internet service provider and you should be able to narrow down where the person lives based on that info.

That means that some one else has your password or he/she has hacked in to your email. \n\nThe one thing that you can try doing is locate the originating ip in the full headers of the email and track that ip down. that will not tell you who sent that email. it'll only give you a source of origin. \n\nTo find who actually sent it.. only logic can help.

look for a profile if one exist.. or google the begining of the address & see if their name is else where.\nif the email was threatening (etc) you can report it back to the company it was sent from.\nview the full header ... view the sorce code (in FireFox right click you mouse & click View Page Source... in IE click View & then Source).\n\nit generally takes some work & with free email accounts - it is easy to hide behind them

It would be complicated, but you could always check your 'Sent' folder and outbox for hints. Also, you could mail round your contacts and ask if they have had any odd emails from your account. And, of course if you suspect or discover something, change your password. :D

Most likely, you can't.  Running a trace on the email will only lead back as far as the ISP.  Only thing I can think of is that you can try an internet search on the email address, and see if you get any hits, or do an internet search for "reverse email lookup" and try one of those sites.

Try this...\n\nGo to "View" (up above), "encoding" and click on auto if it's not on. If it is, then go to "more" and then go through all that are there (unless you know which one it is).\n\nSounds like the e-mail you got was written with different characters (like if it's from overseas). So this solution should help

Yes, with a couple of cases where it will do little good.  The full headers of the email will always show information on where they *THINK* they were mailed from.  Somewhere in the list will be an accurate starting point or the name of a server that logged it.  The cases I mentioned are :\n1.) Okay, so maybe it isn't worth the trouble.  \n2.) You go to the trouble and find it originated from an innocent \n     person's machine which is infested with a virus/trojan/worm.\n\nBest advice on dealing with spam like this:  \n1.) Look for a button or link that allows you to "unsubscribe" and \n     use it noting the date and time.  It will usually say "It may take \n     up to ten days to update our database."  That is the reason.\n2.) If it doesn't exist *OR* you get another email after the ten\n     days is up->  forward the mess without changes or added\n     attachments to spam@uce.gov.  This puts 'em on a list to be \n     investigated by the FTC, and eventually out of all our hair.\nTip for those who dare:  You might wanna' send the spammers\na "Thank You" by putting any possible working addresses obvious\nor hidden in the email in the BCC (blind carbon copy) line so they can see that you've reported 'em.  It blinds the government address from seeing it, but the spammer knows that it has been sent to the government so they can sweat a bit!  This doesn't always work, and the addresses may be invalid, but it can work wonders sometimes.

You can download a program called > readnotify.com. It is free for about a month and send your friend a email. After his email address write readnotify.com and it will tell you the country where your email was sent, when he opend it, how often he opens, if it was forwarded and ect. Just go to www.http://read notify.com. and download and read caferfully to assure that you have checked everything you want it to do for you.The person will not even know you are tracking the appropiate boxes. Try this and test by sending yourself a copy.\n Hope this works for you, it did for me.

You can find out from where the email was sent (the internet provider that the user used to send the email). If you read the headers of the email you can find the original IP of the sender. Then you can go to http://www.maxmind.com/app/lookup_city and enter that IP and you can find some info.

On the email, if it is yahoo, hit full headers at the bottom of the page. Look for the originating IP address. Run it threw http://www.ipaddressguide.com/ (geolocation by IP address) and compare. That will give you their location. But if the numbers are the same, I think that says enuf!
