Trace An Email

Generally, the path taken by an email while traveling from sender to receiver can be explained by following diagram.

So here is the method of tracing the exact location from the email sent.I am showing the email tracing on gmail here but yahoo and other mail providing services have same concept.

Step 1:-First open up your email account and click on your inbox.

Step 2:-Now Select any email that you want to trace.

Step 3:-After Opening scrool the mail at the top and in right corner you will see a Option then Show Original click on it.
Have a close eye on these contents
