After a quick scan of the phorum modules listed on their site, I didn't find anything that specifically obscures email addresses. It probably wouldn't be too hard to do, and I have already had to do a bunch of modifications to the email modules used to tie the forum to the mailing list (and I've never written php before!)

I do wonder how effective email obscuring is, these days. It's not hard to write a bot that would use a regular expression like "(.*) at (.*) dot (.*)" in addition to the usual "(.*)@(.*)" ...
