Opening the Email Headers, in Gmail is simple enough. First click on the Down arrow button on the top right corner of the screen and click on Show Original option. Select the email headers displayed and copy it to your clipboard.

Not using Gmail?.No problem. Open the Email Headers by going to the Properties or Settings of your email account.   Now after that is over, open your browser, to whatismyipaddress. There will be a Trace Email button in the left menu. Click on it to open the email tracing tool. This tool analyses an email header and finds the identity and location of the sender.
       
STEP 2: After starting the email tracing tool paste the email headers in the space provided and click the Get Source button.
         
STEP 3:  The Email Tracing tool will analyse the email headers and ...ta daa...the IP address, location, and ISP of the sender will be displayed on the screen.
