I have emails coming from an email address I do not know.  How can I get the name of the person sending it?

If you are using Yahoo! mail, you should click on the 'Full Headers' link to view more information about the e-mail. This is a good place to start. The rest is hacking and well you're on your own in that regard.

There is no way to do it. All you can get is the ip of the originating email server and even that can be faked. If you own the first email server that the message was uploaded to, then you can get the ip addy of the sender if you were thinking ahead and configured logs right and if the sender wasn't a zombie or otherwise hacked. But if you could do that, then you wouldn't be asking this question on Yahoo! Answers.

For your Yahoo email do the following:\n1- Log to your email account\n2- Select Options in the right top corner\n3- In the Management Column, select General Preferences\n4- In the "From name:" field type the name you want people to see when they receive an email from you.\n\nHope this helps. Good luck.

do this - but carefully\nonce you get the email, move it from your bulk folder to inbox.\nthen, open the email.\nnow you will be able to view the link that says "Report Spam" -or- "SPAM" -or- something...\nand just report it as spam.\n\n---x---\nThe other thing, see if the domain name of these originating email addresses is the same. if it is then block that domain from sending you any emails.\n\n--x--\nif nothing works then you are left with 2 options.\neither ignore the emails or create a new ID.

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.

1. You need to open the email, and click in Show Full Headers,\nthere you will see the IP Address which has originated the email.\n2. You would need to query the IP Address in a WHOIS server, like: \nhttp://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl\n\n3. Then you will see which company it came from.\n\nFor example:\n\n192.6.234.17 would return:\n\nOrgName:    Hewlett-Packard Company \nOrgID:      HP\nAddress:    3000 Hanover Street\nCity:       Palo Alto\nStateProv:  CA\nPostalCode: 94304\nCountry:    US\n\nNetRange:   192.6.144.0 - 192.6.255.255 \nCIDR:       192.6.144.0/20, 192.6.160.0/19, 192.6.192.0/18 \nNetName:    HP-4\nNetHandle:  NET-192-6-144-0-1\nParent:     NET-192-0-0-0-0\nNetType:    Direct Allocation\nNameServer: ATLANTA.AMERICAS.HP.NET\nNameServer: PALOALTO.AMERICAS.HP.NET\nComment:    \nRegDate:    \nUpdated:    2003-02-05

THey may have the IP of the place you are sending from blocked.\nTry sending your email from either another email account or another computer.

Not going to happen. You may be able to find out what state or city they are in. But not an email address. This is because people have many email address and they are not linked to any ip address. I can go the work and send an email on gmail using that pc's ip and go home and send a email with another ip address. Now you may have better luck breaking the email down to find the sender. That is possible. Its all about the header of the email. Try this site.\n\nhttp://abuse.msu.edu/email-tracking.html\n\nHave fun.

Here is a link for interpretting email headers. If you have any of the bogus email you can get alot of the info you need (IP address etc) from the header. TX\n\nhttp://www.stopspam.org/email/headers.html
