email trace

Hi

Was just wondering, if it is possible to trace the IP or email id of the original sender of a forwarded mail, where the emaid id of original sender is deleted by the forwarder.

Let me put it this way, abc@yahoo.com sends to def@yahoo.com, def forwards to ghi@hotmail.com, ghi@hotmail.com deletes traces of abc and def's email ids and forwards to jkl@gmail.com)

In other words can jkl@gmail.com somehow know that who sent mail to ghi@hotmail.com

I hope this is clear, couldn't put in more simple way

Any possibility for such tracing?

I'm fairly sure it's not possible to trace forwarded e-mail details. The sender's details are visible, depending upon the e-mail client, but not those of previous sender's in a chain. The only information which *may* be visible are e-mail addresses to whom previous messages had been sent, but not the full e-mail headers

Not possible as far as I know, even the last sender/forwarder in the chain can forge his own email address. However, the IP of the last sender can be USUALLY traced from the message headers.

Thanks for the reply guys !!!
