Your IP shows BSNL so N4India must be getting it from them. Ya, I
remember, BSNL uses the ADSL in bridged mode with external pppoe.
this ip from which i am mailing is on bsnl - but my desktop is on
net4india which doesnt get it's IP from bsnl - and no, i dont trust
anything as insecure as mail to my desktop.
True. You seem to be using some hops for mail but all your ips are
available in your header anyway. So it is not that secure. The only
secure emailing available as of today is gmail as it does not reveal the
ip of your isp. It only shows the unimportant private ip of the sender
and google's own ip. You can never find out the country of origin, let
alone city.
