Does R have a command for sending emails?

This is excellent. It works great even though I'm on Win2k and behind a
firewall.

I just have one question though, I don't use a function because I sometimes
need to add people to my distribtion list. In R, my system(paste()) string
is very long and when I try put an <enter> so it fits in my Rgui screen, the
function does not work properly.  Everything that is after the <enter> is
not considered by blat.

I don't know if I am being clear.  To clarify, here's my actual code: 

system(paste('
blat c:/tmp/monthly/deacot2005.zip -to receiver at receiver.ca -f
sender at sender.ca  -s "My title is long long long long.   Very long." -server
smtp.host.com -base64'))

In R, if everything beginning with blat is not on the same line, the command
does not work properly and everthing on the second line is not considered
even thought he paste command ends with a ")"

Thanks

If you're still trying to figure out how to e-mail with R, here's what I did
in details.

1- Download blat from
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=81910
<http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=81910> 
2- unzip blat.exe in your base directory (the one with Rgui.exe in it).  I
put it in my C:\Program Files\R\rw2010\bin directory.  You do not need the
other files in the zip file.
3- if you don't know your smtp, use this
http://www.dirfile.com/smtp_diagnostic_tool.htm
<http://www.dirfile.com/smtp_diagnostic_tool.htm>  .  Put in your e-mail
address and leave blank the SMTP.  Press start.
4- In R, 
Write this code and change what you want
system(paste('
blat c:/tmp/monthly/deacot2005.zip -to receiver at receiver.ca -f
sender at sender.ca  -s "My title is long long long long.   Very long." -server
smtp.host.com -base64')) #everything beginning with "blat" has to be on the
same line
5- read the example.txt in the blast zip file for examples of how to modify
the blat request
6- note:  the "-base64" statement is there to specify that the attached file
is binary
