Sending a matrix in an email
I thought that I had provided an example of what I wanted to do but in any case, capture.output seems to work, as in sendmailR(to,from, capture.output(matrix_to_send)) I'm sure that there are myriad other ways (I tried print, which is mentioned in FAQ 7.16 but it doesn't work in this context) Thanks for your help.

You have not provided the minimal reproducible code that the footer of this email asks for, so we are playing 20 questions.
Perhaps you should convert the matrix to a data frame? Or is this an example of FAQ 7.16?

Thanks for the suggestion. I just tried dput and it did not produce what sendmailR requires for the body parameter. Here is a simplified version of what I need to do:
x=matrix(c(1,2,3),1,3) x
[,1] [,2] [,3] [1,] 1 2 3
colnames(x)=c("a","b","c")
x
a b c [1,] 1 2 3
dput(x)
structure(c(1, 2, 3), .Dim = c(1L, 3L), .Dimnames = list(NULL,
c("a", "b", "c")))
I want to send x in sendmailR(to,from,x) and have it look more or less
like the output above. Simple, right?

I have a matrix which has colnames and I would like to send this
matrix using sendmailR. How can I convert this simple matrix to a format which can be used as the body variable in sendmailR? I see how I can create a file attachment using mime_part but I would like to send the matrix in the body of the email.
The matrix looks like:
ABD DEF GHI JKL MNO TOT
[1,] 0.44 0.81 1.67 0.37 0.31 -1.18
All the conversions I have tried end up sending the matrix without
the colnames.
Thanks.
