Hi Michael,
I don't know whether there is a particulal reason for using sendmailR, but
I use mailR for this without any problem.
mailR::send.mail(from, to, subject = "", body = "", encoding = "iso-8859-1",
html = FALSE, inline = FALSE, smtp = list(), authenticate = FALSE,
send = TRUE, attach.files = NULL, debug = FALSE, ...)
If you use an external smtp server, enter login name and password in
parameter smtp as follows:
smtp = list(host.name = "smtp.XXXXX", port = XXXXX, user.name = "XXXXX",
passwd = "XXXXX", ssl = XXXXX)
