Ip address from email?

Is it possible to get someone's IP address from an email they've sent you?

Browntoa

if you use outlook express highlight the email then "Right Click", then "properties", then "Details" tab. then Message source button at the bottom

should be at the top left

X-Originating-IP: [212.87.86.80] for example

It says on the wikipedia website

"it is usually in the header of email messages one sends".

As said its in the email header. right click on email/properties details tab and you see something like this at the bottom
