Since the writers's identity cannot be established no legal action can be taken.But if the defamation occurred through internet or email there is possibilty of tracking the sender and if you are able to establish the identity of sender it will be possible to take legal action/sue for damages.

In the UK even if the person involved isn't known, then you could get an injunction against them - then you publicise it or think of a way to bring it to the perpetrator's attention, and then if they carry on and get caught they're in a heap more trouble than they would have been otherwise.
Oxford University for example have obtained injunctions against unknown animal rights activists vandalising and so on.
