Take this, be grateful and feel free to try Ruby. Email addresses have 
been changed to protect your victims.

<?php
  // You REALLY REALLY need to be doing some validation on this variable
  $email = $_REQUEST['email'];
  // This is the address the email will appear to come from
  $fromaddress = 'fromaddress@xxxxxxxxxxx';
  // And this is the name
  $fromname = 'Zone of success Club';
  // This is the header separator, it *does* need the \r
  $eol = "\r\n";
  // Now we start building the headers, starting with from
  $headers  = 'From: '.$fromname.' <'.$fromaddress.'>'.$eol;
  // Then we *concatenate* the next header to $headers
  $headers .= 'bcc: <hiddenrecipient@xxxxxxxxxxx>'.$eol;
  // Some more headers, some pointless but I can't be arsed to argue
  $headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$fromname.' <'.$fromaddress.'>'.$eol;
  // Removed the name on this one - it's not supposed to have one
  $headers .= 'Return-Path: <'.$fromaddress.'>'.$eol;
  $headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP '.phpversion().$eol;
  $headers .= 'Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1'.$eol;
  $headers .= 'Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit';
  $subject = 'Your free book!';
  $body = '<a 
href="http://www.zoneofsuccessclub.com/freePDF/autopilotebook.pdf";>"Click
ME"</a>  Here is your FREE autopilot book!!!!';
  mail($email, $subject, $body, $headers);
?>

I've tested this on a pretty standard install of PHP 5.1.1, and it 
works, bcc and all.
