    Well, that's a fairly general question.
    It's not possible to just encrypt it so you can't decrypt it. The point of having it there is to send it to the next page. If you encrypt it in a way that can't be undone, then there's no point in sending that to the next page as it won't send to your email.

    So... I suppose you could do something with javascript that messes it up and then undoes it, but it's still possible to figure out what the address was.

    Really, there is no way.

    However, you might be able to do it if you did a different method of sending the form. For example, if you were using php, you could just use your email by default, or use an if to check if the email field was sent as "me" then it would use your email. But since I'm guessing you're using a free form mailer, that won't really work.

    Some form mailers allow you to create an account and have the data send to your email stored at their site, not yours. That's one option.
