Answer 1

Edit: Not working anymore with new versions of Gmail

This was the only way I found at the time to get it to work with any characters.

doreamon's answer is the correct way to go now, as it works with all characters in new versions of Gmail.

Old answer:

Here is mine. It seems to works on all Android versions, with subject and message body support, and full utf-8 characters support:

public static void email(Context context, String to, String subject, String body) {
    StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder("mailto:" + Uri.encode(to));
    if (subject != null) {
        builder.append("?subject=" + Uri.encode(Uri.encode(subject)));
        if (body != null) {
            builder.append("&body=" + Uri.encode(Uri.encode(body)));
        }
    }
    String uri = builder.toString();
    Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.parse(uri));
    context.startActivity(intent);
}
