From what I got they simply used timings:
1. They knew when the email arrived give or take (from headers).
2. They knew who connected to Tor at that particular time (from
network logs).
Even on college campus there might be a couple of Tor users. I would
have used SSH to get to a 'unmonitored network', Tor and then mixmaster.
But the email could have come from anywhere. It didn't have to
originate on the campus. Then a timing correlation could link to
somebody who was merely unfortunate enough to be accessing Tor at
approximately the same time as somebody who was doing something
nefarious. I have certainly had the misfortune of being in the wrong
place at the wrong time and this is just a cyberspace equivalent of that.
