This might be critical. There was a 2010 posting from Barry Rowlingson saying that 'sendmail' in sendmailR was unable to provide smtp-authorization. I got an error message regarding authorization when I added my password. http://markmail.org/search/?q=list%3Aorg.r-project.r-help+sendmail+authentication#query:list%3Aorg.r-project.r-help%20sendmail%20authentication+page:1+mid:pwfqwwwumgwtcqx7+state:results That thread also included Ben Bolker's offer of code in package:Rmail at: http://www.math.mcmaster.ca/~bolker/R/src/contrib/ I was able to get Lin Himmelmann's mail::sendmail function to send a message to myself. Looking at the code it appears Lin has set up a PHP server and is parsing an http: request. It also doesn't look like it is intended to be general solution since there is a message saying the numbers of messages are limited. -- David Winsemius Alameda, CA, USA ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
