This is probably how he tracked the email...
Hi James,
I agree with you - the story GH told about key pressures is ridiculous.
What's more likely is that his "hacker" friend simply looked at the full headers of the email that he received. It's easy to fake the "from" line on an email (spammers do it all the time), but full headers usually give the game away as to the email's true origin.
Knowing this, he could have compared the full headers of one email with another, and noticed a match. That would tell you that both came from the same source - even if the "from" addresses are different.
That's my guess as to how he *probably* determined the email's true source.
