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? -- David Given [EMAIL PROTECTED] --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
