Ip address of forwarded mail

Please reply.

You need to get the said details from the IP SERVICE PROVIDER. It is very comlicated job and time consuming too.The said details are not given unless demanded by higher authority of apex court.

-if as it is forwarded then the info pertaining to person 1 & 2 too will be forwarded to 3 -and extracting ip addresses is a different thing . . . and what if both the machine's (laptops) are using the same net conn ?? -better put your question's simple and straight so that one can try to answer it . . . -even if anything used as evidence, what is the position of the 1st person ??

My Wife once in anger forwarded few gmail email and chats with her boyfriend to me. I want to use them as evidence. But as per my knowledge her boyfriend IP friend cannot be traced in that fwd mail so it can not be used as evidence. Is my assumption correct? Originally posted by : andz

It is quite difficult to get Gmail id... if you want to get G-mail id then you need to file police complaint first.. then only police officials can work further....

you are correct , the chat's saved on one's local machine's is a different thing and forwarded chat messages carry the IP of the machine's IP from where they have been forwarded and your assumption is right and also as you have mentioned "has forwarded few emails" -- may be you can and should work on these . . .

hope this info is of some use . .

Just do some research in google.You can trace the IP

The question here is to find the IP address of initial sender in a forwarded mail, which I think cannot be traced

IP address in a mail can be traced only upto last sender. Let me explain simply. 'A' is writing mail to 'B'. 'B' is forwarding the same to 'C'. then 'C' could see only the IP address of 'B'. He could not find the IP address of 'A'. if he needs it, he has to get the order from apex court and has to approach google to check with their master server data backup. But this may take years and google takes information from its master server according to US laws and only if directed by US court.

ip address can be checked when you expand the full header's of a mail, check the end of the mail where you can expand(show full headers). hope this is of some help.
