What Country is That Sender From?

http://cafe-computer.blogspot.com/

Have you ever received an e-mail where the sender's address didn't end in .com, .edu, or .org, but instead .ie, .pl, or .vi? These abbreviations are called Top Level Domain codes, and they can signify the country of a user sending an e-mail message.

Sample Country TLD codes:

.cn - China
.de - Germany
.fr - France
.ie - Ireland
.jp - Japan
.us - United States
.uk - United Kingdom

For a complete list of country TLD codes, visit this page from IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority):

Remember though - e-mail addresses can be forged. If you receive spam from an e-mail address ending with one of these TLD codes, the e-mail may not actually have originated in said country.
