KNOW THE IP ADDRESS OF AN EMAIL SENDER IN YAHOO,GMAIL

Do you want to find from where does a person email you.you can find this by knowing the IP address of an email sender
in Yahoo! Mail. This is useful if someone is harassing you via email,
flooding your inbox with junk mail or any other reason you may have to
find the location of the email sender.


After you find out the IP address of the sender you just have to use a location lookup service (GeoBytes IP Locator or IP2Location) to find the exact location (country, city, etc) of the sender. You should also read: Tracking the location of an IP address.


Important! You will be able to find the real IP address if the sender uses an anonymous proxy server.


Here is what you have to do to get the IP address of an email sender in Yahoo! Mail:


1. Log into your Yahoo! Mail

2. Click on Inbox or any folder where you have stored your mail.

3. Open the mail

4. In the top right region where the content of the email is shown, you’ll see there is a drop-down option where Standard Header or Compact Header is selected by default.
