Possible Duplicate: PHP Mail, CC Field I have the task of adding a CC

Possible Duplicate:
PHP Mail, CC Field

I have the task of adding a CC to a form on a clients website. All I really need is for the form to submit to the recipient specified as theemail@address.com and be CC’ed (Carbon Copied) to another email address.

Here’s what I have PHP wise, at the top of the document above the doctype (HTML 5)

<?php
    if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

        if(trim($_POST['contactname']) == '') {
            $hasError = true;
        } else {
            $name = trim($_POST['contactname']);
        }

        if(trim($_POST['subject']) == '') {
            $hasError = true;
        } else {
            $subject = trim($_POST['subject']);
        }


        if(trim($_POST['email']) == '')  {
            $hasError = true;
        } else if (!eregi("^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@[A-Z0-9._%-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}$", trim($_POST['email']))) {
            $hasError = true;
        } else {
            $email = trim($_POST['email']);
        }

        if(trim($_POST['message']) == '') {
            $hasError = true;
        } else {
            if(function_exists('stripslashes')) {
                $comments = stripslashes(trim($_POST['message']));
            } else {
                $comments = trim($_POST['message']);
            }
        }

        if(!isset($hasError)) {
            $emailTo = 'theemail@address.com';
            $body = "Name: $name \n\nEmail: $email \n\nSubject: $subject \n\nComments:\n $comments";
            $headers = 'From: Sigma Web Site <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email;

            mail($emailTo, $subject, $body, $headers);
            $emailSent = true;
        }
    }
?>

    Change

    $headers = 'From: Sigma Web Site <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email;
    

    to

    $headers = 'From: Sigma Web Site <'.$emailTo.'>' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: ' . $email. "\r\n";
    $headers .= 'Cc: '.$ccemail; // $ccemail is carbon copying email address
