Answer 5

There should be a return address on the email you got.  Burn a copy of it and keep it, just in case.  I hope you are not being threatened.  If you are, take that copy to the cops and make sure they have a copy and your story.

Answer 6

okay send a reply back to them and ask them to identify themselves. or click on properties on your recieved email it may show you name may not depends on their internet provider, may be links etc in there, but overall if you dont like it delete it forget it hope it never happens again

Answer 7

You can search by the domain ie [e-mail], mail.com is the domain name. if your using outlook or outlook express, right click the message and choose options there will be some info on internet headers copy that info and save it. Otherwise, if its spam or abuse email then contact your ISP they will deal with it and have better power to trace source of messages. They may ask for a copy of the message.
