Code
add_filter( 'wp_mail', function ( $atts ) {
$archive = ''; // For example '[email protected]'.
if ( ! is_email( $archive ) ) {
return $atts;
}
$line = 'Bcc: ' . $archive;
if ( is_array( $atts['headers'] ) ) {
$atts['headers'][] = $line;
} else {

Set $archive to a mailbox you control. Recipients do not see the BCC address.
