cant send email with images embedded in HTML

[BayesyBrad]

the workaround is fine, but goodness would this be a nice feature.

Indeed... I have not discovered any easy way to fix this yet.

I just tried using the workaround with the latest version of rmarkdown, and it's throwing an error telling me to use rmarkdown::render instead of knitr::knit2html. However, when I try the workaround using render, it's not working for me. Can you post an updated workaround using render? Thanks!

First off, create the HTML file from the R terminal (the important thing here is that options does not include "base64_images"

To turn off base64 encoding, you may use the option self_contained: no in the YAML metadata, e.g.

---
output: 
  html_document: 
    self_contained: no
---
