Depends on the program you use to communicate with.

EMail doesn't always show where you were connected, but it will show the
server you sent through.

Chat and IM can sometimes give you away depending on the IM/Chat
software.

Newsgroup - most post some form of tracking info, and IP that you posted
from is very common.

There is nothing to worry about as long as you practice proper security
and are not doing anything that is illegal or unethical.

Learn more about PCBUTTS1 and his antics and ethic and his perversion
with Porn and Filth. Just take a look at some of the FILTH he's created
and put on his website: http://www.webservertalk.com/message1907860.html
3rd link shows what he's exposed to children (the link I've include does
not directly display his filth). You can find the same information by
googling for 'PCBUTTS1' and 'exposed to kids'.
