Hello all……..
In today’s post I will show you send mail from an android application progrmatically..
Let’s go to the code fast……
This is the code in the mail java file….

package com.coderzheaven;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class sendMailDemo extends Activity {
    Button send;
    EditText address, subject, emailbody;
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.main);

        address = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.address);
        subject = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.subject);
        emailbody = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.body);
        send = (Button) findViewById(R.id.send);

        send.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
            	sendEmail();
            }
        });
    }

    public void sendEmail(){

    	if(!address.getText().toString().trim().equalsIgnoreCase("")){
    	  final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
	      emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
	      emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{ address.getText().toString()});
	      emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject.getText());
	      emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, emailbody.getText());
	      sendMailDemo.this.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
	    }
    	else{
    		Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Please enter an email address..", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
    	}
      }
	}

Now the layout file (main.xml)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:id="@+id/LinearLayout01" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
	android:layout_height="fill_parent"
	xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
	android:orientation="vertical"
	android:background="@drawable/android"
	>
	<TextView
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:id="@+id/emailaddress"
		android:text="Email Address"
		android:textStyle="bold">
	</TextView>

	<EditText
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:width="250dip"
		android:hint="email address"
		android:id="@+id/address">
	</EditText>

	<TextView
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:text="Subject"
		android:textStyle="bold">
	</TextView>

	<EditText
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:width="250dip"
		android:hint="Subject"
		android:id="@+id/subject">
	</EditText>

	<TextView
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:text="Your Message"
		android:textStyle="bold">
	</TextView>
	<EditText
		android:layout_width="fill_parent"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:lines="5"
		android:hint="Your message here!!"
		android:id="@+id/body">
	</EditText>
	<Button
		android:layout_width="wrap_content"
		android:layout_height="wrap_content"
		android:id="@+id/send"
		android:text="Send Email"
		android:width="150dip">
	</Button>
</LinearLayout>

The AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
      package="com.coderzheaven"
      android:versionCode="1"
      android:versionName="1.0">
    <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="Send Mail Demo">
        <activity android:name=".sendMailDemo"
                  android:label="Send Mail Demo">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>
</manifest>

Note: However if you test this in your emulator, it will not work. Install it in your device to test it.
