Most people won't notice this, but emails actually arrive in your inbox with a `receipt', which contains a lot of information about the sender. In order to find the sender's identity, we only need to retrieve an IP address, but inside the email header we can also find the originating domain, reply-to address and sometimes even the email client, for example Thunderbird.

For those who havent learned about email...prolly a lot, but so general to be almost worthless.
