Meanings of the Information Found on Email Headers

Asked By AvelinoJan 0 points N/A Posted on - 09/26/2011

Hi! 

I am receiving mysterious emails from a certain email address that I am not familiar with. I was advised to check the email headers of those emails so I can get the identity of the person who is sending me those emails. I know what to do to be able to view the email headers but since I'm not really an IT expert I do not know how to explain the information that I see on those email headers. Please help me out.

Meanings of the Information Found on Email Headers

Dear,

You need to mention that which BROWSER? Every browser has different facilities. Image header is basically the flash problem. I think you are not properly install adobe flash. Lease reinstall it. After that problem would be solved. If not go to firebug program. It has built in arrow finder. Just find out what is your problem.

Thanks.

Meanings of the Information Found on Email Headers

Avelinojan,

Greetings! Each email has its parts; it includes header and body. The header that you’re asking about includes the information of the sender and the person who are going to receive the email. One of the information which is written on the header is the email address of the sender/writer, the address where the email came from.

Another one is the date, the date when was the email was written. The name of the receiver is also written on the header. Another is the subject, in this field; the sender is going to write a brief summary of what his/her letter all about. 

Another field of the header is the CC or the carbon copy. Carbon copy consists of a list of emails. All of the information which is written above are the answer of your question. Hope it helps you.

Sincerely,

Zaari
