That's IF you can get the interested. In my experience you'll have little change of getting them involved unless the person is making threats of some sort (and graphic ones at that). If Hotmail won't give you any details about their user, ask them to hold onto the relevant logs so that you can have your local law enforcement request them in one of many ways. Then visit your local police station *in person* with your aunt and possibiy her daughter. Bring along printed copies of the harassing email(s). Make sure one of the ladies shows some strong emotion (tears work every time). Explain the nitty gritty to the cop and let them know that you requested MS keep the relevant logs for the cops to request. If they won't take any action you should try your state's BI. They might be inclined to help. If no law enforcement agency gives a hoot call you local TV station and give them the scoop on how the cops won't investigate further. This usually works quite well.
