There's a post somewhere @ finding someone's ISP address if you get an email.
Anyone?

An IP address? Make sure you can view the extended headers. As an example, here's the headers from a recent spam:
Received: from 200-158-223-2.dsl.telesp.net.br ([200.158.223.2])
by rwcrmxc12.comcast.net (rwcrmxc12) with SMTP

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/related;
boundary="--8kxBYibNZBICIXYa7N" If there's no X-Originating-IP, check the lowest "Received" header and the From address should be the right one (but not always).
To do a lookup, go here (http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/traceroute/) and enter the IP address to trace it. You won't always be able to get an exact location (e.g., AOL users :mad:), but you can usually get pretty close.
Hope this helps. :)

I split this thread because the conversation was veering toward another subject. The other messages are here (http://carecure.org/forum/showthread.php?t=52242).
