We are using the forms and list module in an international site, and we would like to know the country of the users contacting us. The idea is that when the email is sent, we receive the data entered and also the location from where the form was sent (note that we only want to know the location of the users using our form, not all visitors).

 Is there a way to get the IP address and match it to a country? If not possible, do you have any other suggestions for the desired functionality? Thanks.

This feature is not implemented.
Only way would be a custom datatype that handles this for you. IMHO it would be much easier to look for an alternate module that supports this already.
Sorry, I have no idea which module would do that.

I'm looking at this: http://www.snowcovered.com/Snowcovered2/Default.aspx?tabid=242&PackageID=4104

But even if it works with DNN 5.6 (the version I'm using), I don't think it can be integrated into Form and List.
