I believe TreKing was slightly mistaken in his choice of terms. Here is
a slightly corrected example from the one found on AndroidSnippets.org:
Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("text/plain");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new
String[]{"t...@email.com"});
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "Subject");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Text");
context.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
There is no Uri for sending an email. Instead, you use ACTION_SEND with
text/plain as the MIME type and a suitable set of extras.
By using Intent.createChooser() to create your actual Intent, you will
let the user choose from available email clients how to send the message.
