How to prove that emails sent from a particular email id are original

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 26 August 2011 This query is : Resolved 
1. This is a case in which one is subjected to continuous abuse and use of grossly offensive language by some one who is known to the victim and the email id of the Accused was known to the victim and the usage of abusive and insulting phrases were used over a four months period during business communication between the two.

2. Since victim is mentally harassed, he wants to bring legal action against the Accused under section 66A of the IT Act.

3. How should victim go about it and can prove to the Court that such emails were sent by the Accused only. And how can victim, or the Complainant negate the claims of the Accused who is saying that some one else has used his Email ID and abused the victim and not he?

4. How Complainant can take help from Cyber Crime branch of Police?

5. Answer in as much detail as you can.

1. Email client
2. Email server
3. Website server
4. IP address registered at both servers

These things involved in sending/receiving email.

It is for the cyber crime police to investigate the same as stated about and find out the ip address owner. Then they will charge.

you can have compensation or also punishment upon the accused.
