http://www.php.net/manual/function.mail.php

I stole this from the above link......
And massaged for your needs.

<?php

// switch the value of $email to the
// persons email address you are sending
// this to.

$email = "username at myisp.com";
$subject = "Working PHP v4.0b4 mail script";

$body = "Um, looks good from here.";

$headers = "From: mymailer at mydomain.com\n";
$headers .= "Reply-to: noreply at mydomain.com\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: username at myisp.com\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: username at myisp.com\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: username at myisp.com\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: username at myisp.com\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n";


mail ($email, $subject, $body, $headers);

echo "schweeeeeet.....its workin'";
?>
