I've created a form and have a button set-up to email that includes To, BCC, Subject, and Body Text. I would like the email window to not launch when the user clicks it. Or at the least, not show the BCC copy in the email window. Has anyone be able to accomplish this?

This isn't possible!

1. Acrobat/Reader does not send the mail by itself. It only calls your default mail application through the MAPI to open up and create a new mail with the parameters and attachments given in the form before.
To send the mail, the user always has to click the send button in the mail application, this can't be triggered by Acrobat/Reader.

2. If you don't want the BCC to be visible in the mailing dialog, you have to delete the target address in the form.
There is no way to email silenty to BCC through Acrobat/Reader.
