How to find someone's identity from an email address?
Hey everyone. I received an email from a woman that I've been trying to date. Anyway someone emailed her at her private email address "bad-mouthing" and slandering me. The woman I'm talking to sent me a copy of this nasty email. All I have the person's email address....how can I trace this to find out the real person's identity? I think it was my Ex wife...but since I don't have the original copy of email...I don't have the IP address to look it up. Is there another way to get this prick? I want to be able to google satellite this prick right down to their doorstep and get legal on them!!! Please any techies here that know this stuff??? thanks

In Windows mail, you can left click on the message, select properties and find the IP.

I hear the NSA can pull this information, but I think coffe shops or random free wifi and Internet cages would still present a problem for them.

I use Win Mail for my Google email and Hotmail via POP or SMTP.

Online Hotmail I have no idea.

Here's a header tracer:

Re: How to find someone's identity from an email address?
If you think this same person bad mouthed you on facebook than pick a phrase of 3 or 4 words and place them in quotation marks and google that phrase. If they used the same exact phrase you should be able to find where else they used it. I used this for online dating sites to weed out the con artists and it worked great.

Actually, they sent her a personal email saying some real nasty and untrue things about me. I'm almost 100% certain it's my the "soon-to be" EX-wife. Our divorce will be final in about 2 weeks. I guess my Ex wants me to stay "miserable?" Funny, how bitches like that are? She left me and the grass hasn't been greener for her...she has really fallen into the shitter...and she knows that I will never take her back, so she's going to "try" ruin a good thing I find w/ another woman.

Re: How to find someone's identity from an email address?
The originating IP address will be in the IP Header of the of the e-mail on the computer that originally received it.

For instance, you can get the IP of this woman's PC by viewing the 'header details' on the e-mail she sent you. Usually accessible with a 'right-mouse click'.

You would likely have to do the same on this woman's PC to see the originating IP of the e-mail she received.
We all breathe the same air.

NO not stalking at all...only for proof to press charges and that there's "no-doubt" about who did it to satisfy the magistrate. I KNOW who it is...but I must have legal-proof to teach them an expensive lesson in court! Funny, you should metion "Stalking", isn't that what they are doing to me by emailing someone that I might be dating and trying to ruin my life? I think you may have your head on backwards...sorry.

Exactly,that's my point...the name attached is not someone that I've ever known. That's why I want to get the IP and trace it down to the real "owners" name of that email addy and then google-earth the IP and to satellite as to where they live to prove it in court.

Funny...have you been following along at all? If you had then you would know that I didn't receive the email....and two I want to be able to figure this out. I thought there was a more personal "Free" way to get this info? But I guess I will need to spring a few dollars for it...no prob. I'm sure the cyber cops ar just as pathetic as the real cops(they don't want more paperwork and investigating)

You know what they say...if you wnat something done right...you need to do it yourself! I have the money...I will get all the info and hand it over to authorities. You pretty much have to do your own work these days.

NO, for harrassing me 'unprovoked'...asshole. Pretty "judgemental" of you isn't it for someone that doesn't even know a thing about me aren't you? I asked a simple question and I get bullshit like this from an idiot like you? I'm the good-guy here. No one has the right to harrass other people. I'm just trying to put a stop to it...but you need legal-proof in order to do it right. What your problem. Only person here "trolling" would be YOU. This my thread...now "jump-off!"
