Hi, I am setting up my R environment on windows 7 for the first time. I am not able to send emails from my R sessions. I am having problem in creating outlook com object to send emails. Same code works fine from my windows xp setup.
Following is the code (If outlook is already running on PC) x <- outlook() mail <- x$CreateItem(0) Mail object is NULL in above case. If outlook is not running, then mail object is created properly. But still the mail is not sent. I think this is because the port 25 is not open by default on the workstation as per the admin policies. I will ask the admin to open the port 25 for me and test it, but I cannot rely on the fact that outlook is open or closed on PC. Why mail object is not created in first case. Is there any setup required for windows 7 env?
