But bug.report() will give you a good start on command-line oriented systems which have mailx (the POSIX mail client). (mailx is more standard than mail that a couple of others have referred to.) The adventurous could use make.socket and friends to talk to the sendmail daemon on a Unix-alike. Windows is somewhat harder: 'blat' provides a command-line mail client that talks to a SMTP server elsewhere. If you use MS Exchange you will need to find other ways to talk to it (DCOM?) Long ago we talked about have a mailer() function in R, but making one that was close to universal proved to be far too difficult for its utility. -- Brian D.
