Apparently, I should RTFM a little closer next time... the mail() function,
in Windows specifically, does not support the Bcc: header yet.  Looks like I
have to wait for the 4.3.0 release.

Yes, I realized that... I have other people creating test entries, so the
only mail I should be receiving is the BCC.  Unfortunately, I'm not getting
anything (while the To and CC addressees are).  It looks like the mailing
list removes anything in parentheses from the subject, so something that
should be mentioned is that I'm running PHP 4.2.1 on Windows NT with IIS 4.

While test make sure the destination mailbox for the addresses are not the
same. Some mail servers only deliver one copy if multiple copies are
addressed to the same box.
