How do I find the name of the person to whom a hotmail email address
is registered and where it's originating IP is located?Hi,
Well I am sure there is not way to fine it rather asking Hotmail
itself to traceout the users information, because whenever user
creates his/her account in hotmail or other mail providing servers,
they catch the record of its IP.
Cheers!!!
SanjayHi murfoda,
You typically can't *reliably* determine to whom a Hotmail account is
registered unless the account owner is listed in the MSN Member
Directory. You can *sometimes* find out through reverse lookup
services, but these are not foolproof.
I can provide you with a number of reverse lookup services to try and
teach you how to read your e-mail headers to determine the originating
IP location, though, if you find that sufficient.
--MissyI didn't think it would be possible to determine the IP address of the
originator of an email sent from a Hotmail account, but I just sent
myself a message from my Hotmail account and when it arrived at my
Yahoo! account, and also at my ISP account, I checked the full headers
and I saw my IP address:
X-Originating-IP: [68.106.xx.xxx] (partially x-ed out here because the
exact value is irrelevant to the discussion)
So if you still have the message around, check the headers.
If you're using Outlook Express, you can just right-click on the
message in your Inbox and do: Properties, Details, Message Source, and
there it is!
Note that the email sender might have been using a proxy or anonymizer
to access Hotmail, and this would make any such IP address useless.
Or they could have been using a public library, Internet caf , etc.,
making the IP address at least semi-useless. But if you're dealing
with a (...not sure of the right word: na ve? innocent?...) user, it
may work.#If you have any other info about this subject , Please add it free.# |
