I would not have told my H about that until I had the chance to do some *research*. As a former IT professional, nearly no email is untraceable. It might prove time consuming to find the PC that sent that message, but its possible to do.

Not nearly as easy as it sounds to trace email and depends on if they are using a generic (Gmail, yahoo) etc to send the mail.

 

Gmail automatically hides the senders IP address and will not provide that information without a court order. Add proxy servers and the fact that if someone opens and email account no one is sitting watching to confirm they are entering their real name ect, and it is physically impossible.

 

Experienced if first hand. The only time it would be somewhat doable is if they were emailing from their isp email account or a work/server based email address.

How long have you been married?

 

When did your H have an affair?

 

Has he only had 1 that you know of?

 

When did you discover it?

 

When did you start your affair?

 

How long did your affair last?

 

Does your H know of your affair?

Lady D,

 

Do you know some great IT person who may be able to track back the IP addy for you from the email?

 

That won't do any good. All that will do is tell you who their ISP is. And an ISP could then go in and see who owned that IP for the date and time it was used. But they can't give that information out unless its to the authorities and only if it is a legal matter.

 

But if you want to see who the ISP is, you can type the IP address in at hexillion.com and it will tell you.

Oh, and then ask her if she knew he was married when she started having sex with him. If the answer is yes, you could always say, "thanks for the honesty"...then slap the ever lovin' p!ss out of her:)

 

 

Really!! You're advocating violence to resolve a situation? Mature...NOT

 

no, I'm not advocating violence. if you really think that was a serious suggestion, then you have a problem.

Perhaps you should read the whole thread before replying with your broken record responses.

 

maybe you have the time to read everything on here, but some people don't.

 

perhaps I will read the first post and respond to it if I like. And if it happens that the situation has changed as the thread progresses and I can come back and say, "oh, just read where...." and change my stance....then thats my prerogative.

LD already answered some of these. Her A was revenge for his affair and short lived - 3 months, I think. And I believe her H does not know.
