According to this page http://code.google.com/android/reference/available-intents.html the mailto: url is not supported by an intent... unless it was simply left off the list by accident. That is a possible explanation but my attempts to use mailto: in a URL result in errors.. unfortunately I cannot list the exact error here b/c I already switched to Peli's suggested method of emailing.
Siva, for your "no application" error my guess is that the android emulator does not have an e-mail application since it doesn't actually know who you are (you'll notice there is no email or gmail app in the emulator's app list). I don't know if a developer phone would work either. You may want to consider testing on a real phone and seeing if it works... that is what I plan to do once i get my app to a stable state.
