Re: Detecting sender of text messages?

Sadly, I think the answer is no. Not from your phone. The carrier does
have tools to track down the source IP. But I haven't heard of anyone
having any success. If you find out different, we will all benefit. I
receive the occasional junk mail, but nothing obscene. dr

Recently I've been getting speratic text messages, nothing threatening,
just obscene junk. Because of some of the content I believe they are
cominging from someone who may know me. Reading the messages it appears
as though they are coming from some web-site or some anonymous source,
doesn't appear to be another cell phone. Is there some way that these can
be traced or tracked down or do I just have to ignore them and possibly
someday fight to have my cell number changed?


Thanks,

Anthony
