Email Tracking Question for the IT Gurus

Recommended Posts

Accounts like that are called ANONYMOUS, since they are WEB BASED, tracking them will be no good since you'll be getting the web server info, plus, some ONE TIME ONLY addresses can be created.

How would one go about tracking down who sent an email from a hotmail account



What do you mean, like what is the real name of a person at a so n so address? Or who was actually at a computer who sent an e-mail? Or who spoofed the e-mail address from a completely different location and just SAID they are @hotmail?

The First, I believe Hotmail has a directory online that MIGHT have the info you're looking for

the 2nd, if you didn't install that spy camera next to the PC, you're SOL

3rd, depending on how SHTUPID the person is, you MIGHT be able to read the full e-mail header to see where the e-mail is REALLY originating from.
