If an e-mail account is created & ur personal info is not added, is there any other way it can be linked 2 u?

What I mean is, if I want to e-mail someone information about a particular issue but I don't want to be known as the person saying such....can it be linked to me somehow, maybe investigated where account was created and/or maybe what computer account was created at....? I just don't want it to be linked to me, so I want to know if there is anyway it can be....

The process of creating an email account requires that your computer talk with the server hosting the email account. The computer talk goes like this:





Hello Server (their IP address) this is me (your IP address*),


I'm sending some information to you (Data header, length and type of data), I want to set-up an email account (Data), End of message. These transmissions contain small pieces of the message (divided into very small ["computer bite-sized" pieces]), in a process which is repeated thousands of times. In reply, the Server confirms receipt of each part of the message; the transmission actually involves receipt and re-transmission along a sequence of several computers (typically between 6-12). The main server may also request information from your computer, such as system specs (MAC address, which identifies your computer specifically; being a hardware identifier, it is unchangable), drivers, programs and version information (i.e. Java, Internet Explorer, Adobe, etc.), and cookies. Security programs can block the transmission of most of that information, but that may irrepairably block communication with the server and prevent either the creation of the email account or the transmission of the message (depending on the server).





If the FBI/CIA/NSA intercepted your message at the recipient computer, the message would contain a trail of ip addresses which they would use to trace it all the way back to the main server and straight to your IP address. Now if you have a program which changes your ip address, then the FBI would request records from you internet service provider for the time that the message was sent to the server for a match of the ip address used to author the message and the owner of the matching ip address at the time. Odds are that not too many people would have such a program, so records of frequently changing ip addresses with your ISP would flag you as a suspect almost immediately. The short answer is: There is no chance that you could send an anonymous message without being identified later on. All electronic communication can be tracked quite easily (in the USA).





Also, with your IP or MAC address the feds can quickly locate and crack your firewall and electronically secure control of your computer and all of its data, including evidence of the message that you sent from it. If you do anything illegal, a court warrant will grant law enforcement access to your ISP's records (though ISPs have not contested government requests for information without warrants) concerning your ISP account, address, phone, billing info, etc, so obey the law. Now if you use someone else's computer without their knowledge, then someone else would take the heat for it instead of you, but I don't imagine that you would be okay with that happening to anyone who trusted you enough to allow you access to their computer without their knowledge of it. On the flip side, don't ever allow anyone else access to your computer, while connected to the internet, unless you trust them a lot and always be aware of the approximate times that they are using it just in case.





The easiest way to do what you are thinking (without getting loved ones in trouble) is to call from a pay phone far from your typical daily routes with gloves on and a highly masked voice using computer generated amplitude distortion. Your payphone will be tagged shortly, but your prints will not be left, and your voice will not be analyzed correctly. Just be careful that you stick to a script, so that you aren't drawn to reveal too much for an identity match.
Reply:yes your ips numbers
Reply:No if there is no personal information given then it cant be traced
Reply:If the authorities want to trace an email account it can be traced to a computer. If you were to set up an email account from a public computer the trace would lead back to that computer. Most public places log who uses which computer at what time.
