To all the email experts, I have a puzzle to figure out and track the individuals who sent the emails to the soc.culture groups. The individual caused a lot of tensions for the readers so we'd like to find out how we can track him down. I extracted the headers of email from my system. The question is: Is there anyway to track down to the machine/site who posted the news ? If the answer is yes then I have 4 following questions? Where EMAIL1 message is generated ? Who would be the responsible site ? i.e., the postmaster ? The same question would be repeated for EMAIL2. Where EMAIL2 message is generated ? Who would be the responsible site ? i.e., the postmaster ? The soc.culture.[hongkong,vietnames] would appreciate your expert help. Thanks P.S.: I have tried to look at the email paths, and message ID, but I'm still not sure how to do it precisely. Accuracy is very important here. The person who posted EMAIL1 promised he will launch his message again on soc.culture.hongkong on 02/23/1991 at 3:00AM EMAIL1>From grapevine!newstop!sun-barr!cs.utexas.edu!swrinde!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!tut.cis.ohio-state.edu!ucbvax!MTUS5!SFWPIWR Tue Feb 12 11:48:59 PST 1991 EMAIL1>Article 2239 of soc.culture.hongkong: EMAIL1>Path: grapevine!newstop!sun-barr!cs.utexas.edu!swrinde!zaphod.mps.ohio-state.edu!tut.cis.ohio-state.edu!ucbvax!MTUS5!SFWPIWR EMAIL1>>From: SFWPIWR@MTUS5 EMAIL1>Newsgroups: soc.culture.hongkong EMAIL1>Subject: Kong's faked products.
