Try looking in the internet headers for an ip address. Once you find that you could try looking it up in a RIPE database online (google for RIPE). This MAY give you the name of the organisation that the email came from.

If youre talking about spam email, a lot of the ip addresses are spoofed or hidden anyway.

To be honest there's very little you can actually find out.
