ok, go to your email

On Yahoo Mail you need to click "Full header" from menu "Compact header" while you see message.

click Compact header first

Now choose Full header

Did you see my Post ? where I asked YOU...What Email YOU have ?? hno:

Hotmail : To view the e-mail header information:

1. In the left pane, click Mail.
2. In the Folders list, click Inbox.
3. Right-click the message in the message list, and then click View source

Please note, this does not work on the classic version of Windows Live Hotmail, you should use full version of Hotmail.

Log into your Gmail account with your username and password.
Open the mail.
To display the email headers,
Click on the inverted triangle beside Reply. Select Show Orginal.
You may copy the headers and use my IP address detection script to ease the process. Or if you want to manually find the IP address, proceed to 5.
Look for Received: from followed by the IP address between square brackets [ ].
Received: from [xx.xxx.xx.x] by web31804.mail.mud.yahoo.comIf you find more than one Received: from patterns, select the last one.
Track the IP address of the sender
