How to find the IP address of the email sender in GMail

In 2 previous posts, I have shown:

Now, let’s see how to find the email sender if you are using Google Mail.

Here is what you have to do to get the IP address of an email sender in Gmail:

  1. Login to your Gmail account using your username and password
  2. Open the email for which you want to find out the sender’s IP address
  3. Click on the inverted triangle beside Reply. Select Show Orginal.
  4. Look for Received: from followed by the IP address between square brackets [ ].Received: from 123.123.155.63 [123.123.155.63] by mx250o.mysite4now.com with SMTP;
  5. If you find more than one Received: from patterns, select the last one.
  6. Find the exact location of the sender by using GeoBytes IP Locator or IP2Location.

It’s that simple! Do you have questions, comments, or suggestions? Post a comment!

    @max – That means your IP is hidden or it can not be seen by others.
