Maybe call it to explain the situation, then forward an offending message complete with timestamp and IP address to that and see what they can do for you?

I’m going to toss a second on this, if anyone can track a message inside their systems its going to be the ISP. They will be able to tell the police the exact business/accunt the message originated from, police call business. Even a pretty large business can be whittled down to a handful of people with access and on duty at the time. I would be willing to bet the IT people at her employer might start logging her if for no other reason but to cover their own ass and fire her if she is sending the messages via company computers.
Okay, it just seems like too much of a coincidence that my stalker is using the same hotel wireless connection where my boyfriend’s ex-girlfried (and biggest suspect) happens to work…
Blocking all restricted numbers doesn’t work b/c I have friends who like having restricted numbers I also think she’s too smart to call any 1-800 number I give her…
But I will contact the abuse line of the ISP and see what they can do for me. I’ll also look into a restraining order. Thanks guys!!!
You haven’t answered the question of how he/she is blocking your emails.
How is he/she hiding his/her tracks? How did you find out his/her IP address?
You said yourself that the IP comes from a general service, how do you know it comes from the same hotel your suspect works at?
Someone who is clever enough to cover all of their tracks - this sounds like a technician, not someone who works at a hotel.
How does this person know any of your personal information? If it is your boyfriend’s ex, how she have gotten it? How would she know your phone number and email address? How would she know what you look like?
When this person calls your cell phone, do they talk?
Perhaps this is a male person following you, someone you may even know.

“I have to admit, I’m mystified. It’s our first christmas together, we’ve been seeing eachother for almost a year. You’ve never expressed an anti-gift philosophy. I’ve seen you give great gifts to others. In fact, the birthday gift to your ex-girlfriend was spectacular, and taking her to see that concert was a wonderful idea. I’m not usually one to compare gifts between girlfriends but… the comparison between a concert and… nothing… is almost impossible not to notice.”
In addition, even if this whole story were true, there’s no evidence that this “ex-girlfriend” called Nogoog from work. It would be wrong to try to get her fired on such scanty information, plus I imagine “Nogoog” could be sued for slander. The police have no reason to get involved, since no one was threatened at any point.
I also think she’s too smart to call any 1-800 number I give her…
