Hi to all,

I'm trying to develop a simple application to handle mail forwards
(basically a proof of concept on intent filters). My starting poing
was: 
http://www.rainbowbreeze.it/android-e-intent-filters-per-registrare-unapplicazione-tra-quelle-per-mandare-sms/

For non-italian readers, this blog sample declares intent filters to
handle sms composition with a custom activity. This works perfectly,
here my manifest, copied (and refactored) from the link above:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android";
        package="com.ms.test" android:versionCode="1"
        android:versionName="1.0">
        <application android:icon="@drawable/icon" android:label="@string/
app_name">
                <activity android:name=".Main" android:label="@string/app_name">
                        <intent-filter>
                                <action 
android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
                                <category 
android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
                        </intent-filter>
                        <!-- Sends sms for someone -->
                        <intent-filter>
                                <action 
android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
                                <action 
android:name="android.intent.action.SENDTO" />
                                <category 
android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                                <category 
android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
                                <data android:scheme="sms" />
                                <data android:scheme="smsto" />
                        </intent-filter>
                        <!-- Sends text to someone -->
                        <intent-filter>
                                <action 
android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
                                <category 
android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
                                <data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
                        </intent-filter>
                </activity>
        </application>
</manifest>

When you go to Contact -> (context menu on contact) Send SMS, the
"Complete action with" dialog appears, letting users choose
application to use (my "Sample app" or default messaging application).

I want to realize something similar on email context menu, for the
"Forward" option, implementing an Activity that reads forwarded email
text/attachments. I've tried a number of change in manifest, with
different action, category and data (scheme/mime) but with no luck
("Complete action with" dialog never appears on "Forward" menu
selection).

Someone can point me in the right direction?

Thanks a lot.

Bye, M
