Yep. I'm afraid she'll go postal, and my office is right next to hers.

Thanks. The problem is that I've been the one that's mainly been complaining about her. Any type of "anonymous" retaliation would definitely focus attention on me. I'll think of something....

Just did a quick check:

gmail masks your IP, so unless you are doing something to someone in china you should be safe

hotmail & yahoo will get you busted via the header file
No, you won't get busted... as long as you don't send the email from work. Besides, if you're really that worried about your home IP showing up in an email, use Tor. The bottom line though, is that if he doesn't do anything illegal his coworker won't be able to figure out who he is. His ISP isn't going to give up RADIUS/DHCP lease log information unless asked by a law enforcement agency. Don't get technical with me man, you almost certainly don't have the know how. I used to run an ISP (as in network engineer/unix sysadmin), so I have a good idea of what I'm talking about.

EDIT: About the most you'll be able to figure out without information from the ISP is who the ISP is and general location (city) based loosely off of DNS, the ARIN WHOIS database, or a proprietary database such as geonetmap. This *still* does not tell a recipient who *you* are, only the general location of the machine the email came from, and even that's not certain due to the existence of programs such as Tor.

That is of course if you are personable and easy to get along with, I know most super technical ubergeeks such as yourself are the most opinionated, hard-to-deal-with asses in the world... so that might not be an option for you. (Flame on, I'm in software development for a living, so tell me that i'm talking out of my ass....)

I'm also a software developer, hold a very high gov't security clearance, and work for a major defense contractor. Sending her a nasty e-mail, if I'm caught, wouldn't be the smartest thing to do.

What else can I do ??? I've complained to two managers, and everyone in the section was briefed on cubicle etiquette - which was mainly directed at the secretary. She, however, seems to think that it wasn't, and continues on in her bitchy ways.

I'm was thinking about filing an HR complaint, but don't want to possibly screw up my professional career. Finding a good, well-paying job in the Bay Area is not easy.

Any other suggestions ??

It's cool, here's what I posted originally...

What I meant to imply is if you posted from a throw-away account from your home address, you'll be fine as with even the most thorough investigation they'll only be able to figure out rough proximity of the machine the mail was sent from. Getting the information required to tie the IP address to a name isn't easy as most ISPs are pretty stringent about passing out personal info to anyone other than LEOs for legal reasons. The don't want to be sued, plus it's just more work for the system/network admin to dig through the logs and put the pieces together..

The chances of a secretary:

1. Finding the X-Originating-IP SMTP header in the email.
2. Knowing how to do some variant of dig/nslookup or whois.
3. Being savvy enough to successfully employ some sort of social engineering hack to get the info from the ISP.

are essentially nil. Add Tor in, and they almost nil becomes zero.

Type an anonymous letter at home, print it, and slip it under her door?!?

Background and financial checks, polygraph tests about any criminal/civil activities and lifestyle (are you gay or have gay thoughts ??) questions.

Not getting a clearance depends on the extracurricular activity. Obviously, if you robbed a bank or killed someone you're not getting a clearance. Also, doing drugs in the recent past excludes you. I think they allow you to have "experimented" when you were younger, but don't quote me. One guy here wasn't granted a Secret clearance just because his now ex-wife had run up a bunch of debt on his credit cards before they were divorced.

PM me with your "past extracurricular activities" details if you'd like, and I'll check with my security office for his opinion.

Did you go through a full SSBI? I was cleared TS/SCI/TK, and yeah, it was a pain in the ass. I can't imagine that's gotten any better. The annual NCIS "interviews" were always fun as well. They actually asked about beastiality FFS, among other things.

Get a Doctor's note saying you have a sensitivity to perfumes/strong smells.....present to boss....and go up the chain of command as needed.

This might work

Hard drug usage, or excessive usage of any sort of drug is a show stopper. You can often get a waiver for light/experimental stuff though. My knowledge on this subject is a little dated though, my last clearance adjudication took place circa 2002. They will go through the list, drug by drug during the interview, at least they did with me. They even tried to trick me...

Investigator: Cocaine?
Me: No.
Investigator: Acid?
Me: No.
Investgator: Amphetamines?
Me: No.
Investigator: Orange juice?
Me: Yes.
Investigator: Just checking... Marijuana?
Me: No.
etc.
