If you don't have it,how you sent that email? This question won't make sense at all.

That is what i was saying. You have sent email to abc@xyz.com and then you are trying to get abc@xyz.com which makes no sense at all.

Hi Kumar,

I guess,your task is to track the emails ids in the which the link is clicked.
If this is your requirement the following solution may help you.

Consider that link in email redirects to your page Mypage.aspx.
What we can do here is , append one query string parameter to the page link with the EmailId to which email is sent i.e mypage.aspx?ref=[EmailId]
In the page load of Mypage.aspx,you can look for the query string ref value and insert the Email id into the data base.
Also you may need to encode the Email to keep it secure.
This is a simple approach to start,I hope this will help you..
