I don't suppose there is any way of tracing the owner of a mail.easy.co.uk email address, is there?

I received a message that reads an awful lot like it was written by a mate I've lost contact with - not some generic phishing crap, but much more specific. However, he didn't confim his name in the email (but then, he often never did); and my replies are bouncing.

Have you tried looking at the long headers on the email? They have masses of information included.
