Phorum logs the IP that comes in with the post in the database. In most cases this is the assigned IP from the internet provider. If they go through an anonymizer, the logged IP is that of the anonymizing company.
In the admin, you can change whether the IP is shown to regular users, admins always see it.
Event logging captures the IP address and logs it if enabled.
Don't know how or if you can get a mac address.
If you are attempting to block spam, there are other tools/modules to assist.
