If you examine the header of the e-mail, it will give you an originating IP address. (You may need to modify your e-mail client to "expand headers", as they are usually hidden). Once you have the IP address, you can go to a DNS lookup site (such as dnsstuff.com) and put in the IP address. That should map to a domain name.
Understand that expert spammers can mask IP addresses, so this technique doesn't always work. If not, you'll need some 3rd party tracing software to trace the e-mail back to it's point of origin.

go to google http://www.google.com/ and type in the email address in it's entirety and click search to see what sites it's listed on.
