Error when send kableExtra table

[selesnow]

Hello, on previous versions of mailR i can sent HTML table makes with kableExtra package.

Yesterday i update mailR to 0.8 and get error:

Error in FUN(X[[i]], ...) : 
  Sorry, parameter type `kableExtra' is ambiguous or not supported.

Example code:

library(kableExtra)
library(mailR)

html_tab <- mtcars %>%
                    kable() %>%
                    kable_styling(bootstrap_options = c('bordered', 'hover'))

# try to send
  send.mail(from     = "me@gmail.com",
            to       = 'test@gmail.com', 
            subject  = 'mtcars table - test,
            body     = html_tab,
            encoding = "utf-8",
            inline   = TRUE,
            html     = TRUE,
            smtp     = list(host.name = config$email_smtp$host_name, 
                            port      = as.integer(config$email_smtp$port), 
                            user.name = config$email_smtp$user_name, 
                            passwd    = config$email_smtp$password,
                            ssl       = as.logical(config$email_smtp$ssl)),
            authenticate = TRUE,
            send = TRUE)

Can you just put the html_tab in as.character(html_tab) ?

library(kableExtra)

html_tab <- mtcars %>%
  kable() %>%
  kable_styling(bootstrap_options = c('bordered', 'hover'))

as.character(html_tab)
