[R] Add local image as inline embedded Image

[Jeff Newmiller]

a) The email I am replying to should have been a reply to your original 
email [1]... it is not a complete picture of your problem, and you are not 
maintaining a thread of conversation.

b) I don't compose emails in R so I don't know what R package(s) you 
should use/look for. I recommend package "sos" or Google.

c) You need to spend some time learning how email works so you will 
understand what the email body needs to look like when you have finished 
constructing it (e.g. [2]). Study the MIME format [3]. If a package 
doesn't exist that helps, you can at least construct it yourself by 
pasting together the various pieces, but this is not the right forum to be 
asking questions about MIME.
