Error with sending with most recent Java Update #103

Open zekePhoenix opened 3 years ago

The recent Jave update (Version 8 Update 291) doesn't seem to work with mailR. I had to revert to a previous version of Java. Then it worked as expected.

Is this the message you get? java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/activation/DataSource

Yes, I get the same error message with Java 1.8.0_311 . Is there a way to resolve this?

I didn´t find it. I switch to emayili, https://datawookie.github.io/emayili/. It works perfect, and has no Java dependency.

Hi folks -- please switch to this GitHub repository: https://github.com/rpremrajGit/mailR. The latest version of mailR fixes the issue.
