Hi group,

Could someone explain how to decipher Email header? How can we know the
real sender of spam or virus email?

The best place you can go to for a very complete course on e-mail headers 
is, in my personal view, Gerry Boyd's web page on the subject.

Go to:

You will learn, that I guarantee.  :)
