Step 1Well, about the only step there is, is to find in your email application where it says something about "View Headers". I personally, use Mozilla's email application that comes with it automatically... and that is where the image comes from. Netscape will also allow this... "View/Headers/All" from the menu. I am certain that other applications offer this as well, including web mail like Yahoo. It's just a matter of finding the right option.
in the "Received" section is where you want to look. You may need to run a "whois" to determine if you might have the right IP address (usually you have a good idea of where it should be coming from)... this can be done at this web address:
Step 3There are also programs that you can use that will analyze the header information of an email. All you have to do is copy and paste all of the header information and it will tell you what it thinks. The program that comes to mind is called Sam Spade. It is a free program and can be downloaded from a variety of places... but here is one link:
Step 4If you are wanting to do this to stop some sort of spam... good luck! They use all kinds of techniques to cover themselves. The best thing that you can do in a situation like that is to report it:
Most countries do not oblige ISP providers to keep records of who has accessed what. Some of the ISP may help you and tell you "Yes, we got 5 MAC addresses who had those IPs you are asking for... We know the names of the people but we cannot give you such sensitive information." Or they may tell you "Go to hell, f***ing American! " and hang you down. By the way, yahoo can be accessed by both your Outlook Express (or similar) or it may be accessed by the web browser (and a proxy). It is not very easy to trace an IP when it is behind several proxies.
It's simple to detect ip address from your inbox. just select the particular mail to find the ip address just go to the File menu from your outlook express and select properties. a pop up box will appear on the screen along with two buttons one is general and other in details .select the details and your will find the message says "Received: from" and ip address of sender.
look for a link in your mail page for "full headers"; read through the results to see the originating IP, with this you can then try to see who it is, where it came from, but better still, you can log this in a block list, in theory thus keeping it from mailing to you anymore. More likely it will keep that addy from mailing you, untill it is otherwise rerouted or recloaked via some other source that has yet to be identifird by you as bullshit, and as such, yet to be blocked by you. And so on and so on and so on..... at least this is as I have come to understand myself.,
good luck... I hope this offers some bit of helpful info... in some way or another.
you can look at the infomation buy right clicking on the email and selecting view message source i dont know if this would help but give it a try anyway. good luck.

It is easy to trace email sender if you know where to go.
Check trace email trackers from:
http://www.ipaddresslocation.org/email-tracking/em...
http://www.find-ip-address.org/email-search/find-e...
You need just to copy/paste email header into email tracking tools above and you will know location along with many other things.
Good luck!
