If you use an external smtp server, enter login name and password in parameter smtp as follows: smtp = list(host.name<http://host.name> = "smtp.XXXXX", port = XXXXX, user.name<http://user.name> = "XXXXX", passwd = "XXXXX", ssl = XXXXX) 2015-10-08 18:49 GMT+02:00 Michael Ashton <m.ash...@enduringinvestments.com<mailto:m.ash...@enduringinvestments.com>>: For some time I have been using sendmailR to generate a simple message when a report was done running. Recently, I started adding a couple of pertinent statistics in the body of the email. Now, I've finally decided that what the heck, I ought to simply attach the report itself to the email. The report is generated as a pdf file. I can't seem to get this to work in any simple way with mime_part; if I specify a path to the file it simply assumes that "P:/blablabla/thefile.pdf" is a message I want to put in a text file attachment. I assume I am doing something incorrectly and likely something simple. But maybe there is a clever trick I am missing. My send line is simply: sendmail(from,to,subject,body,control=list(smtpServer="mail.optonline.net<http://mail.optonline.net>")) where body is something like this: body <- list("Here's your stupid file",mime_part(x="P:/partofpath/ thefile.pdf",name="file.pdf")) Any suggestions are welcome!
