No, not always. Some ISPs (Yahoo and others) use a special header to show the ip address.
Others show exactly where it came from in the received headers.
But many programs don't show the user's IP address and only show the server's IP.

Yes. You need to find out how your mail program shows the source code for emails. (varies by mail program) The coding that displays at the top of the message will show the IP's for each place the message has traveled on its way to you. The problem is that many servers use a "floating" IP. This means that each time the person signs onto their ISP they are assigned a different IP address. Some people have a "static" IP, which remains the same at all times.

yes, click on full header at the bottom of the e-mail. it will tell you who sent it the ip address of the isp but not the computer it was sent from cause the ip address changes each time the person log on, if it is a dynamic ip address, if it is a static address then it will show it..
