Re: Locate email address
1. How to find out. First open the mail, then go to "properties" usually under the "File" header. On "Properties: select "details" This should give you info about the sender. You may also want to contact your ISP. They can help you.
2. What can you do about it? Not much unless the language is threatening or slanderous. If you can find out who did it, you might be able to get an injunction. An injunction is a court order to cease certain behavior which may be illegal, harassing or otherwise improper.
