Why yes there is. But this is not an Acrobat or PDF question. Submitted data is recieved by a server script. This information should be in the header of the HTTP Request packet. I say should be because most of the header info is optional. The information is not always availible. It's up to the server side script to grab this info.

If the form, or form data, is submitted by email then no, this info is not availible.
