Following the directions provided in this related question, I was able to send html formated mail messages. Now the question is this: How should I modify the following code, in order to attach one or more files (of any type) to this message?
library(sendmailR) from <- "<[email protected]>" to <- c("<[email protected]>","<[email protected]>") subject <- iconv("Message Title", to = "utf8") msg <- "<hr size='2' width='33%' style='text-align: left;'><font size='2'> <i>This email was sent automatically using <a href='http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/library/sendmailR/html/00Index.html' rel='nofollow' target='_blank'>sendmailR</a>.<br> Please do not reply directly to this e-mail.</i></font>" msg <- iconv(msg, to = "utf8") sapply(to,function(x) sendmail(from, x, subject, msg, control=list(smtpServer="###.###.###.###"), headers=list("Content-Type"="text/html; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed")))

With the mailR package (https://github.com/rpremraj/mailR), you could send HTML emails and additionally attach files with ease as below:
send.mail(from = "[email protected]", to = c("[email protected]", "[email protected]"), subject = "Subject of the email", body = "<html>The apache logo - <img src=\"http://www.apache.org/images/asf_logo_wide.gif\"></html>", html = TRUE, smtp = list(host.name = "smtp.gmail.com", port = 465, user.name = "gmail_username", passwd = "password", ssl = TRUE), attach.files = c("./download.log", "upload.log"), authenticate = TRUE, send = TRUE) Edit (2014-05-13):
mailR has been updated to allow different character encodings. Below is an example to send the message as UTF-8.
send.mail(from = "Sender Name <[email protected]>", to = "[email protected]", subject = "A quote from Gandhi", body = "In Hindi : थोडा सा अभ्यास बहुत सारे उपदेशों से बेहतर है। English translation: An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.", encoding = "utf-8", smtp = list(host.name = "smtp.gmail.com", port = 465, user.name = "gmail_username", passwd = "password", ssl = T), authenticate = TRUE, send = TRUE) If you love us?
