How do you tell who you received a payment from?

[suprabitz]

double click on payment for the address... other than that its pretty anonymous - you have to know what address its coming from. thats why the fed cant go looking up who's getting what

Create a new address to give to each person you want to do business with. Then, when you receive money at one of those addresses, you know who it came from, since you didn't give that address to anyone else. Though it's still possible that they got a friend to pay you on their behalf, or something like that. You don't know. You don't need to know. If you think you need to know, you're probably doing something horribly wrong.
