• Responding to email notices you receive.
    **************************************************
    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I know someone knows!!!

Is there ANY way to view someone's IP or some kind of mark that would trace an email back to one specific computer???  I was scammed a while back and I'm 99% of who it was and that they were using a fake name, but I need to compare this to what I know is their REAL email to see if they came from the same computer.  Someone has to know how to do this and whether or not I can.  I have received emails from both people and have them saved.

Your internet service provider can probably assist you there, but if they are willing is another story.
 
What email program are you using?  There is usually an option to "view full headers", that will tell you the IP address that the mail originated from.
 
I use hotmail, and I have emailed them about giving me the IPs and they said they couldn't, or wouldn't help me.
thank you for the responses.

OK, With the help of Audrina I managed to view the IP's.  From what I understand, each time you connect to the internet you get a different IP.  But, I've heard that the IP's are in blocks and that a computer will get similar IP's each time the sign on.  Does anyone know the signifigance of IP's and how I can use them to at least give me an indication of whether or not someone has more than one email coming from one computer?  
I compared something called the "Received From" and they are very similar w/all the different emails.  Here is an example.  This is copied and pasted from 3 totally different emails that I believe came from the same computer.
Received: from [65.66.92.170]
Received: from [65.66.92.251]
Received: from 65.66.92.170
And here is something that came from the 3rd address that is also similar.  It was in a different email as the 3rd one, but from the same address.
X-Originating-IP: [65.66.92.170]

If you notice, they are all extremely similar, and the 1st and 3rd are EXACTLY the same.  Does this mean that they must have certainly come from the same computer?  ANYONE with knowledge on this, please respond and try to help me.  This would be so great to actually crack.  If I can crack this, I will share the whole story, and let me tell you, it's juicy.
Thanx in advance,

I just did some more checking and those 2 that were identical also occured on the same date.  Does this mean that this person sent them from the two different emails during the same connection time?  I compared these numbers to many other random emails that I have in my files, and none resemble each other, much less being exactly the same.
