Send Email Intent

Question

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType(\"text/html\");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, \"emailaddress@emailaddress.com\");
intent.putExtr         


        

Answer 1

when you will change your intent.setType like below you will get

intent.setType("text/plain");

Use android.content.Intent.ACTION_SENDTO to get only the list of e-mail clients, with no facebook or other apps. Just the email clients. Ex:

new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);

I wouldn't suggest you get directly to the email app. Let the user choose his favorite email app. Don't constrain him.

If you use ACTION_SENDTO, putExtra does not work to add subject and text to the intent. Use Uri to add the subject and body text.

EDIT: We can use message/rfc822 instead of "text/plain" as the MIME type. However, that is not indicating "only offer email clients" -- it indicates "offer anything that supports message/rfc822 data". That could readily include some application that are not email clients.

message/rfc822 supports MIME Types of .mhtml, .mht, .mime
