Hello John,

I tried the dput function a couple of different ways, with some different
arguments set, and it dumped the following (or less):

"structure(3L, class = c("textConnection", "connection"), conn_id =
<pointer: 0x00000022>)"

Concerned that I miscopied some of the reproducible example to my original
post, I just tried it again, and everything worked fine.

If, as you say, my email was somehow sent out as HTML, a good alternative
is to see the post on the Nabble forum here:

http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Narrowing-values-collected-from-txt-file-td4674220.html

Here again, I copied and pasted my reproducible example into RGui and it
worked great.  So, I'm not sure what the issue is?  Are you able to grab
the reproducible example from Nabble?  If so, I'm still stuck on the
problem I laid out in my original post.  -Eric
