who's ip? the computer's on your network? what kind of network are you on? are you the administrator of this network?

the only way I have been able to do this is through outlook....if they send you an email, open the email, go to file--->properties--->messageID...cut and paste the message id into notepad.
This is where you need to find the id, simply trying to ping the whole string wont work.

my example

c=US;a= ;p=companyname;l=FRAEXMB7-060209224134Z-307356

in the above, i changed the name of my company to "company name"
FRAEXMB7 is someone on our network.

in dos command line: ping fraexmb7
this will result in the IP address of the person. I have not been able to figure out an easier way? Im sure there is an easier way, but have not figured it out.
???
I would like to know this myself, just out of curiosity

who is they?

As rivek noted, you would ping the machine name

so, on a network created by star trek geeks, where each computer name is named after a star trek character

ping kirk, would result in a screen like
