threatening email

not sure if this is where I should post. I received a threatening email. How do I find out where it really came from? Return path says Yahoo-Newman-Property. How do I trace real IP and location?

Re: threatening email

The IP is included in the email header itself. It can be viewed easily, depending on what you're using to view your emails.

Re: threatening email

Thanks Jack. I did find an IP, and I traced it, but it went to a company that claims it is not theirs. They are having their ISP look into it. Not sure what else to do at this point? Any suggestions?
