Submitting form by email to include field value as CC

I have a text field (named DeptEmail), which automatically populates based on the selection from a dropdown field.  I want the text from DeptEmail to added as a CC when the submit form button is selected.

My inspiration came from the following link: https://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/dynamically-setting-submit-e-mail-address and my current JavaScript looks like this:

// This is the form return email.  It's hardcoded

// so that the form is always returned to the same address.

// Change address on your form to match the code below

var cToAddr = "email@email.com";

//Now get the CC email address

var cCCAddr = this.getField("DeptEmail").value;

// Set the subject and body text for the email message

var cSubLine = "CRT Submission";

var cBody = "This CRT and attachments are hereby submitted.";

// Send the entire PDF as a file attachment on an email

this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: cToAddr, cCC: cCCAddr, cSubject: cSubLine, cMsg: cBody});

The button works on every level EXCEPT it does not add the CC.  Any suggestions?

The name of this parameter is cCc, not cCC.

You probably copied the example from the documentation, where it's unfortunately incorrect...

That I did, unfortunately.
