More on sending emails from SAS

Whether it be a report dashboard, an ANOVA model with striking results, or simply an SGPLOT with revenue numbers, SAS provides an easy mechanism to share SAS objects and products through email. Want to send out a single email to a colleague? Maybe you need to send it to your entire department? Or, think big and send out your message to the entire company, and beyond. Easy configuration and a few commands will get the job done. Want to set things up to run on a  recurring basis? That's covered as well. Create a macro to automate your email. You can even send the message in a text!
