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.

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).

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

  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.

 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

2008-12-15 Thread Siva G

Hi,

When I try this snippet I get a message saying No Applications can
perform this action. Is there something else I should take care of
like in the manifest file?

Thanks,
Siva G

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.

You should not be getting this error on a G1 or, presumably, the Android 
Dev Phone 1.

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.

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? Do
any Android email apps do this already?

2008-12-10 Thread Andrew Stadler

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.
 * pInput: [EMAIL PROTECTED] #getData} is URI from which to retrieve data.
 * pOutput: 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.

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.

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. I'll do it myself when I
get to that part of my application if it's not already done.

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.

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.

2008-12-08 Thread Dianne Hackborn
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.

On Mon, Dec 8, 2008 at 9:31 PM, Dianne Hackborn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 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.

 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.

 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
