You can look at the header for the sending IP address and try to guess who
it is. If you think you know and have access to other mail they sent, you
can compare IP addresses. But there is no way to positively ID the sender
unless you have other mail they sent to compare the header to.

Not reliably. The best that you can do is ID the ISP used to send the email.
