This one is obscure enough some will say they can't find it, but two different ones come up Monaco. I don't think he is trolling either. It's not surprising that these sorts of tools aren't 100% accurate. An IP address has nothing to do with physical location; it has to do with the block of IP addresses your ISP has reserved, and that sort of thing changes. -- monique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca |

I know how to find out where an IP resolves to; I just didn't know where to find it in the headers using OE. I've used samspade.org before to look up IP's. Justin suggested looking at the NNTP posting host. I noticed some posts have that, some don't. For example, yours and mine don't, it looks like you are posting through Individual.net too. Can someone look at my post and see what IP from which I am posting? Sorry to sound like an idiot, but everyone (on this group and others) talks about what IP people are posting from and I didn't know how to see it. -- -Kelly kelly at farringtons dot net "Wake up, and smell the cat food" -TMBG |

It may be something individual.net does to protect customers? Justin |

"KellyH" wrote I know this will seem dumb, but I can't figure out how to see the IP of a message using OE. When I look at my own messages, it shows that I'm posting through uni-berlin.de, because I'm using Individual.Net. But, my Internet access is from Comcast in Massachusetts. I can't see where it shows that I'm in even in the US. -- Your news server masks your IP address. Mine does too. Some do, some don't. If you look at the properties of my post you will see that you cannot see my Bellsouth IP either. |
