Can anyone point me in the direction of a way to find out the correct email address of a person posting abusive and insulting comments on usenet? They are using a fake address (ostensibly to hide from spammers, e.g. nothing@spamhell.com) but is there there's a fairly simple way to find the originating isp, etc?
If you can point me in the direction of an faq I'd be much obliged.
Thanks
Andrew
