Find out a Person using Email
Google is the most obvious place for performing reverse email lookups but if the person you’re trying to find doesn’t have a website or if they have never used that email address on public forums, Google will be of little help.
Find the sender’s location
Open the header of the email message and look for lines that say “Received: from” and are followed by an IP address in square brackets. If there are multiple entries, use the IP address mentioned in the last entry.
Now paste the IP address in this trace route tool and you should get a fairly good idea about the approximate location of the email sender.
Reverse email search with Facebook
Facebook has a billion users and the likelihood is therefore high that the sender may also have a profile on Facebook.
Unlike LinkedIn and most other social networks, Facebook lets you search users by email address so that should make your job simpler. Just paste the email address of the person into the search box and Facebook will instantly tell you if a profile exists with that email address or not.
People Search
Finally, if none of the above tricks work, you should try a people search service likePipl and Spokeo – both services let you perform reverse email lookups but Spokeo has a more comprehensive database than Pipl.
Other than regular web documents, Spoke also scans social networks and even the whois information of domain names to find any bit of information associated with an email address. However, some of the results returned by Spokeo are only available to subscribers.
