Can anyone assist in telling me how to find out the country that an Email is sent from, please.

I am an Owner/Mod on Freegle/Freecycle and we constantly find our members are getting spammed with offers & info requiring members to visit various sites, Etc. This we need to stop.

Obviously we only have members from our own locality so anyone outside that locality is not welcome but the emails appear to come from the States, and are probably sent out in bulk, by an email harnessing program.

Thjey can only get the contact details if they are members but they have joined under a different name to that used for sending emails, but hopefully the computer address will be discoverable (Provided they use the same computer)

There are basically two steps involved in the process of tracing an email. Find the IP address in the email header section and then look up the location of the IP address, to do this it depends on the email program you're using. I would post a link to a site that explains how to do it but am unable to as I'm a new user. Feel free to PM me for it and any other information.
