Sunit, thanks for your writeups, they've been helpful.
Your Code Snippet 1 for this new tutorial has some formatting issues,
the last few lines are not in the code box.
Also, does your code open the email client to send or does it send
automatically? your code looks similar to what's posted here and I
thought it opened the email client (haven't tried it yet as I'm still
on the emulator).

Sunit, thanks for your writeups, they've been helpful.
Your Code Snippet 1 for this new tutorial has some formatting issues,
the last few lines are not in the code box.
Also, does your code open the email client to send or does it send
automatically? your code looks similar to what's posted here and I
thought it opened the email client (haven't tried it yet as I'm still

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
Are you working on a device or the emulator? On the emulator there is
no email apps installed by default.
Install Email or K9 and the code should work.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
Currently there is no application installed on the emulator by default
that can handle this intent.
On the 'real' device G1 there are Google Mail and MMS available to
handle this intent.
Looking at the K9mail Manifest
http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/source/browse/k9mail/trunk/AndroidManifest.xml
it seems they support the SEND intent only for "image/*" MIME types,
but they also support the SENDTO and VIEW intents with a "mailto:";
address.
One could write to the K9mail group and suggest to support the SEND
intent for other MIME types as well.
I've written to the K9-mail team here:
http://groups.google.com/group/k-9-mail/browse_frm/thread/2621f0a54b0bf03e
Please add your comments and wishes there as well!

Currently, the OpenIntents table seems to be more complete :-)
http://www.openintents.org/en/intentstable
(although there are still more intents that can be found in the
original documentation: e.g.
http://code.google.com/android/reference/android/content/Intent.html
)

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.

An application needs to be on the device or emulator that knows how to handle ACTION_SEND of MIME type "message/rfc822". So, for example, on the 1.0r1 emulator, there is no such application (AFAIK). Reputedly, 1.0r2 has the email application built in, and this problem occurs there too. That I can't explain, but I haven't experimented with 1.0r2 just yet.

Hi,
When I try this snippet I get a message saying "No Applications can

like in the manifest file?

Ok, the site is accessible now, but for future reference I copy the
code from there:
http://www.openintents.org/en/node/121
Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "email text");
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject");
sendIntent.setType("message/rfc822");
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Title:"));

In the case of the browsers, it pops open a message in the default mail program with the addressee, subject, and body populated. However: startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url))); This pops up the mail app chooser (Email vs. Google Mail), as expected. However, neither parse out the subject or the body, leaving those blank. Heck, Mail doesn't even seem to parse out the addressee, leaving that blank; Google Mail has the addressee as "f...@gmail.com". Now, if I use java.net.URLEncoder on the component parts, I get the same mailto: URL, except %20 is replaced by +. If I try that URL, Mail slams the whole mailto: (minus the scheme) in the To: field, and Google Mail behaves as before. Since the use of + signs seems to violate RFC 2368 for mailto: URLs, and since Firefox seemed to like %20 better, I figure that's the better answer. Issue 978 reports the same behavior. I have added these comments there as well.

David- This is already supported in both the Email and Gmail apps. Is there a reason that you believed that it wasn't? Here is the raw Javadoc straight from Intent.ACTION_VIEW: /** * Activity Action: Display the data to the user. This is the most common * action performed on data -- it is the generic action you can use on * a piece of data to get the most reasonable thing to occur. For example, * when used on a contacts entry it will view the entry; when used on a * mailto: URI it will bring up a compose window filled with the information * supplied by the URI; when used with a tel: URI it will invoke the * dialer. * Input: [EMAIL PROTECTED] #getData} is URI from which to retrieve data. * Output: nothing. */ So all you have to do is create an intent with the ACTION_VIEW action, a "mailto:"; scheme in the Uri, and send it. Hope this helps. --Andy --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Speaking as a user, I don't want an app sending mail on my behalf, ever --- especially if it's through my account! But I *would* like an API that allows an app to launch the email application of my choice, with subject, recipient and body filled in, so that I can inspect it and press SEND if I choose. This has another advantage that it ought to be really easy to implement, requiring only a standardised intent with the data packed into it --- e.g. mailto://[EMAIL PROTECTED]&body=Body, which is not only how the web does it, but is also a standard: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2368.txt Am I right in thinking that the only thing this needs to work is that email apps declare themselves as supporting the mailto: data scheme?

I don't think a general-purpose UI for sending email sounds useful,
but a general-purpose API for email definitely sounds useful.
Obviously, it would have to be a privilege you grant an application
("access your email" and "send email on your behalf" seem like
good candidates), but given that the phone is so connected to my
gmail account, I was really surprised to not be allowed to take
advantage of it from my own apps. For example, one of the first
apps I wanted to write was something that would hook into an
"incoming mail" notification and play custom notification sounds
based on simple message-matching rules. I don't think it's doable
unless I want to duplicate IMAP client functionality and force the
user to provide/manage duplicate credentials. Pretty lame from
a platform standpoint.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
I don't think having the user enter their email information one time for each app that needs it a big deal. Does android have a standardized email settings dialog box we can invoke? Or do we have to roll our own? If there isn't one already that would be a great little project for someone that wants to make a contribution to the community.

You can do this today. You need to get yourself a Java JAR that supports SMTP, ask the user for SMTP credentials (server, from address, SMTP authentication settings, etc.), and you're set. I can see the argument that it would be nice to have an option where the user didn't have to configure that email information again. However, please understand that under no circumstances you should be assuming that the user *wants* you to use the pre-configured account for any of these situations. Hence, you're going to need to support allowing the user to specify alternative SMTP credentials, anyway. Long term, I can definitely see where Android might evolve a general-purpose email service, where the user can create multiple accounts, and it is easy for applications to allow the user to choose which of those accounts to use (or launch an activity to define a new account, etc.). However, as with any open source project, how long the "long" in "long term" is depends on who all has itches and decides to scratch them. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com _The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development_ Version 1.9 Available! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
Btw, you can probably get away with doing this with little to no platform changes at all, by defining an intent protocol that is similar to the existing one but doesn't require presenting a UI. There are still some important security, user interaction, and management issues that would need to be addressed though, such as what to do with multiple e-mail apps with multiple accounts. Anyway, the point is that this is an open source project. You aren't dependent on Google for things, you don't have to sit here begging for people to give you features you want, if you feel strongly about something you can make it happen.

If you want a feature like this, feel free to look at submitting a patch to the platform. You'll want to talk with people in the platform group about the security implications of doing so, so we can have a patch that we are comfortable with. This is probably way down on the priority list for the core platform work, so I doubt a feature like it would be added without someone who wants it coming in and making it happen.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
Diane I accept (with a heavy heart :-( that Google is not interested in providing for this, but I do believe it is a valid requirement. First let me clarify that I have no interest in accessing the user's personal account information from my app. I would ideally like an android api that protects this info and just allows my app to invoke a sendmail method with subject, body etc. Under the covers the api would access the personal account credentials of so it can connect to the smtp server. Second, consider the following use cases where this requirement comes up: - A salesforce phone app is set up to always send an email to the sales supervisor when a customer support person updates a customer ticket. The email is automatic and informational - A service rep (cable guy) app is set up to automatically email the service supervisor, when a rep leaves the location of his/her last service order. - A game is set up to automatically email the highest score to all members of a game-group In all cases, the app would advertise the auto-email as a feature, that the user can opt into or out of. thx jay On Dec 6, 2:13 pm, "Dianne Hackborn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You need to go through the UI of the mailer activity, so the user can select > which app to use etc. Adding support for allowing applications to get at > the user's personal e-mail information and send on their behalf without > their interaction (but some other way to inform them that the app is doing > this) is not a high priority for the platform; actually, I would personally > much prefer that apps go through the mail UI so the user can be aware of and > confirm whatever some non-mail app is sending on their behalf. > > As a user, wouldn't you prefer this too? :} > > > > On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 4:23 PM, Jay-andro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I too want to send email programmtaically (i.e without a send form). > > I've got it working with my hardcoded credentials, but I want my app > > to use the user's account to send the email from the user's account > > and receive replies to his account.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
You need to go through the UI of the mailer activity, so the user can select which app to use etc. Adding support for allowing applications to get at the user's personal e-mail information and send on their behalf without their interaction (but some other way to inform them that the app is doing this) is not a high priority for the platform; actually, I would personally much prefer that apps go through the mail UI so the user can be aware of and confirm whatever some non-mail app is sending on their behalf. As a user, wouldn't you prefer this too? :} On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 4:23 PM, Jay-andro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I too want to send email programmtaically (i.e without a send form). > I've got it working with my hardcoded credentials, but I want my app > to use the user's account to send the email from the user's account > and receive replies to his account.

I too want to send email programmtaically (i.e without a send form). I've got it working with my hardcoded credentials, but I want my app to use the user's account to send the email from the user's account and receive replies to his account. How do I do this?

You can find a code snippet here: http://www.openintents.org/en/node/121 There is also a related SENDTO action which you can look up in the documentation.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
Ok how would I implement the 'send form'. Do you mean that I should launch a web browser and use some webmail type of application hosted on a server? I was thinking about the Email Outbox. How can I put a simple text message as an email in the Outbox? I know I could do this long long ago with Palm OS ver3.0. Hope there is a way to do it on Android. - Sunit On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 5:25 PM, Andrew Burgess <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > If you don't want to direct the user to the typical send form, then you're > going to have to either try and adapt an existing java based mailer to > android or write an SMTP client from scratch.

[android-developers] Re: How to send email programmatically?
If you don't want to direct the user to the typical send form, then you're going to have to either try and adapt an existing java based mailer to android or write an SMTP client from scratch. The SMTP standard isn't too hard to implement. On Tue, Nov 11, 2008 at 8:05 PM, Sunit Katkar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Any ideas?
