In an appropriate time order, consider:
a) gather documentation of your client/employer rights;
b) triple check your rights v evidence & facts of asserted infringer
c) as feasible determine the base location(s) of infringer, and appropriate jurisdictions;
d) as feasible determine the email server(s) of infringer, and venue/ jurisdiction;
e) review legal rights, authorities, & local weirdnesses for particular venues & jurisdictions;
f) if supported by appropriate local law, consider written notice to email host, domain registrar;
g) consider your next stage if infringer just moves to new hosts;
h) etc.
