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.
