The IP address of sender.

Hello,
Can email reveal the IP address of the sender? For example, is it possible to block all emails that sending from a specific country?
If yes, then if sender use a VPN then its IP masked?

Thank you.
Yes you can. Look for X-Originating-IP in the SMTP header.
Doesn't work for a lot of web based email services like Gmail though.

No, I meant was web based emails like Gmail, Yahoo!, Hotmail and etc.
I think a lot of web based emails do actually included the senders ip in the X-Originating-IP header to prevent abuse. Try checking an emails source and search for that header and do a lookup for the listed ip.

Hi, in order to get the IP you can try this:

1) go to cyberforensic .in/OnlineEmailTracer/index.apsx
2) in a new tab, open the email for which you want to trace the details
3) tap on the three dots near the reply button and click "show original"
4) now copy the email header box on the cyber forensic website and click "start tracking"

Doing this you should get the IP Address
For webmail like Gmail or Yahoo!, it show the IP address of sender?

If the sender is using VPN, then it will show the masked IP

I sometimes come around and poke a few threads before leaving for a few months again.

It will show the ip of gmail or yahoo smtp servers which was used to send the email.
If the sender is using VPN, then it will show the masked IP

For webmail too?
after reading the thread and every replay i suggest you to hire someone do this for you or just read much about tracing spam e-mails " this will lead to nothing most likely "

type this in google "how to trace spam email" and you will get many result's about it read it and then do it your self
