    I know when you send emails via outlook and what not people can figure out ur ip address... Is when you send emails via hotmail or gmail does it reveal the senders ip address? Is their any way to hide this? thx!

    I don't believe when you send an email through Hotmail or Gmail it shows your IP address. When you send emails through Outlook it shows your server's hostname and not your actual IP address.

    Open a Gmail you have and to the right of the senders name click on "More Options" then in the list click on "Show Original" and you will see all the header data...
