Using gmailR with R

I’m struggling to find a way to send a few (likely much less than 100 per month) emails with the gmailR package. I set up the package with a new gmail account and the account was banned after sending two test emails using gmailR to another email account I had.

I am perplexed that the gmailR package can exist if Google is so aggressive about banning accounts that use it.

Are there users out there that use gmailR? Is it safe to use gmailR with a personal gmail account?

Tried gmailR, another gmail account, postmark, etc. with poor results. Have pursued purchasing a domain to try and get around this issue. I apologize if this is the wrong forum for this kind of discussion.

  • I appreciate the link, but this link discusses emails in the thousands (e.g., 2000, 5000 messages). In my post I mentioned this happened after sending 2 (“two”) emails.
