IP of sender in Windows Live Hotmail

Is there any way to get the IP of an e-mail received using Windows Live Hotmail?
I'm asking as I have a somewhat regular flow of spam, I think I know who's doing it, but I'm not entirely sure

You can indeed :)

In the email listing menu (assuming you aren't using Hotmail Lite), right click on one of the messages and click "view source" (this should bring up the e-mail source, not the HTML page source code). That should show the full e-mail message headers, for example:

You should have something similar to that, and it should show which mailserver IP sent the message (and possibly the IP of the person that sent it). :)

loving the cool smiley in the middle of all that.

its a shame I'm using the free version of hotmal

Nick,
You don't have to be using the paid for version to use this-just the 'hi-fi' version that you get if you login using Internet Explorer.

Whoops I didn't see the smilie in that post

Glad you got it working! I'm using the free version too

That's very cool.

So it wont work on classical obviously - just on the supposedly "new and improved" one.

Very handy to know that - thank you!

So basically, we find out the senders IP address, go to http://www.whois.net/ , stick in the IP, and then find out wherence it comes.

Very nice.

Very nice indeedy

*STAND BY FOR LESSON IN IP RESOLUTION*

To find senders I usually use www.dnsstuff.com and here is why:
You have different registries for different parts of the world (Example, ARIN for American IPs, APNIC for asian IPs, etc). Now I know James live in America, so to find out who his internet service provider is I would simply go to www.arin.net and plug in his IP.

Courtesy of my years of doing this for the US government, off the top of my head I can tell you that anything with the 1st number being 220 belongs to Japan. So if you take 220.19.5.8 and plug it into ARIN it will tell you the IP belongs to APNIC. Now unless you knew that APNIC was another registry, you would accept APNIC as the culprit. What you would do is go to www.apnic.net and plug in the IP there then it would tell you the owner of the IP is bbtech.net located in Kanazawa, Ishikawa Japan.

Well if you use DNSStuff for this, it does all the work for you. Whenever it gets results back that belong to another registry, it goes and queries that registry for you so you don't have to.

This comes in handy with RIPE (yet another registry). A lot of times ARIN will send you to RIPE, then RIPE will send you to APNIC or another registry. DNSStuff cuts that time way down.
