Bounce reply send_message() about gmailr HOT 4 CLOSED

I can reproduce this. Strangely if I send email to myself the email shows up correctly in my sent and inbox, but I also get two bounce emails. This was not happening a few weeks ago, perhaps the API has been changed slightly. I will try and figure it out, thank you for reporting the issue, and your MWE is close enough to one for me.

I can confirm this bug as well. It seems to result from the multipart messages. If you do it in standard R format the way JennyBC did in her send-mail-with-r tutorial, it does not seem to have a problem. This works:

test_email <- mime(
    To = "PUT_A_VALID_EMAIL_ADDRESS_HERE",
    From = "PUT_YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS_HERE",
    Subject = "this is just a gmailr test",
    body = "Can you hear me now?")
ret_val <- send_message(test_email)
ret_val$status_code 

This does not:

mime() %>% text_body("some message")

It is interesting to note supplying an empty string also works:

 mime() %>% text_body("") 

But as soon as any non-empty string to text_body, send_message fails.

For whatever reason, gmail is not handling multipart messages in a way that google likes. It is exceedingly hard to debug because g@#gle! does provide informative messages for why it is refusing to the message. (In all cases I get a response code 200.)

Any ideas?

Also, this appears to be related to issue #11. You probably get two-for-one here.

I think this is fixed now, I no longer have this issue.
