    hi all,

    i wondered if it is possible to tell what country an email was come from. obviously i am looking to do it legally, but didn't know if that information was available or not.

    Thank you in advance

    get the IPs from the mail header and google them.

    You can try http://wandering-ips.com. There is an option to load and analyze external file; so if you save your e-mail (along with header) to a file and then analyze it with wandering ips you should receive an exact location of sender.
