E Mails and IP address

[Sweetangel]

Is there anyway I can find where this came from? I got the information from Gmails drop down bar and show original. I have been getting these cryptic e mails for a while now. I think I know who is doing it and i have tried to run the IP address through a tracer program on the web but it doesnt make any sense.

Oh and i removed the e mails and replaced them with numbers.

The Ip addresses dont seem to be mine either, doesnt start with 10.

the IP address belongs to google (see here)

what exactly do you mean by cryptic emails?

 

[Sweetangel]

Cryptic

Well lets just say they are coming from someone who is trying to freak me out, I dont know if its a joke or not.

So the IP address is Googles but what about the other information? Is there no way i can decode this information and find the city of the person who is sending them?. Theres lots of different information in code

 

[Daveskater]

all i can really see there about the origin of the email is 45645@googlemail.com, other than that i can't get anything out of it, i don't know if anybody else would be able to get anything better or not

 

[Sweetangel]

What about?

SMTP id l9mr1805729wfg.1193142497104

Is that not traceable back to the sender? I thought all e mails revealed the IP and that it couldnt be hidden?

I did some google searches and it says you cant hide your IP and that its embedded in the e mail, is this not true?

Thanks for replies so far

 

[M0ntG0M3rY]

Google Mail hides senders' IP addresses from e-mail headers. Hence you can't trace the sender's location if the email was sent using Google mail.

 

[Sweetangel]

Oh kk so theres definately no way i can do it? this is so annoying

 

[M0ntG0M3rY]

Unless you have someone working for googlemail there's no way to get to know what you want to.

 

[Sweetangel]

what if i e mail google mail and ask them where the e mail came from? do you think they will tell me?

 

[Nodsu]

No, they will not.

At best, you can report abuse and have them shut down the sender's account.

 

[Sweetangel]

Oh kk. If i think i know who these mails are coming from and i get the Ip address and even the host they use will they tell me then? if they can check that and confirm i think i know who it came from and just ask for confirmation? or is that illegal?

 

[M0ntG0M3rY]

Just forget it, they won't disclose any information to you, moreover they even won't answer, I think.

 

[Sweetangel]

that sucks

 

[Nodsu]

Would you like Google reporting about everything you do on their systems to anyone who bothers to ask? (Well, that happens anyway because of all the security holes, but still.. )
