android - Opening an email client on clicking a button

Question

I am designing an app in which i need to open an email client on clicking a button. The email client should be opened with a pre-defined subject and 'to' address. Is there a way to attain this? Please provide me the solution and a code example if possible...

Answer 1

Goes like this:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("plain/text");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] { "some@email.address" });
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "mail body");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, ""));

Alternatively, you could use IntentFactory.getSendEmailIntent(String mailTo, String mailCC, String subject, CharSequence body, File attachment).
