Hey,

I am in quite alot of yahoo groups and most of them have been
'mail-bombed' with greetingsand practically trashed with photos and
links.

Is their anyway of tracing the culprits??

When I open the full headers and put the IP in IPWHOIS it just gives me
the greetings website info.

Thanks,

howteek

Unless the website puts identifying information in the header, the only
way to trace it would be to contact the website and have them check
their logs.
