Email Lookups
Email lookup tools vary widely in quality and the features they offer. Most, quite
frankly, are not very good because their sources of data are poor. Most email lookup
tools gather their information from two sources:
1. trolling Usenet news postings and
2. users who add themselves to the listing.
Also, don't expect to get a lot of information about someone even if you do manage
to match a name and an email address. The most you usually get is a full name, a
complete email address, and maybe an affiliation. This does not mean all email
lookup tools are useless.!" Sometimes it is a coup just to match an email address
with a name.
Email lookup tools sometimes offer some type of domain or reverse lookup.
Infospace permits reverse email 100kupsintheformat[@eunet.yu].This option is
not under email search but under reverse lookups at:
.
Furthermore, Infospace lets users enter partial addresses and will return all
listings starting with those characters, e.g., [@eunet].
