Someone sent me an email, is there a way to find out who it was from (trace)?

By carefully examining the message header, you can usually determine the WHAT (the IP address or system used to send the email), but you can never determine the WHO with absolute reliability.  In order for you to answer the WHO question, the message would need to have been sent with an authentication or privacy mechanism, such as PGP.  The reason?  Message headers can be faked.

yahoo sent me an email

If they have the password and know how to cover their tracks, I'm afraid not.  Things to look for are emails that have already been clicked on that you don't remember reading or your trash file being empty when you didn't empty it, etc.  My advice would be, if you think someone is looking in your email, sign up a new email account with Yahoo! and don't tell this person that you did.  Then, tell everyone else who emails you to start emailing you at the new address.\n\nP.S.  You could sign into Yahoo messenger with the new ID and look up the other ID and watch it to see if the little yellow happy face comes on at any point in time.

you can not follow the email sender information through inbox.ypu should go to yahoo memebers :\nmembers.yahoo.com\nand search for email address.it will bring you the profile of that person.

Right click on the email, select properties, details, message source. There should be an IP address (series of numbers like 122.80.444.23), use a whois or IP sniffer (by searching for ones online). You should be able to trace the senders service provider by entering the IP number into the tracer. So for example, if it returned an AOL address, visit the AOL homepage and contact them about it. DO NOT delete the email as they will require it.

If in your Options page you click to Show COMPLETE HEADERS, and send and email to YOURSELF, you will see what routing information, etc., that comes marked on your emails.\n\nBest wishes. :)

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.

No - that's what BLIND copy means.\n\nOnly the sender knows who it was sent to. You may be able to trace the sender based on the IP in the mail header, but it's more likely that the mail was sent by a spam zombie.

You could be on the "bcc" list of these emails. In this case you are just secrectly copied. Nobody except the sender will know.

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

These emails are sent using your email address.\nHowever they were not sent from your email account.\n\nThese details are included in the headers of the email, and most email programs notice this and decide to filter out the email as spam. Check your bulk mail folder, and you're sure to find it.
