 Double-check your spelling, I think you have an i and an e the
 wrong way round.

 As for emails, I'm not aware of any public intents in the GMail or
 Email apps, and I'm not sure which one you intend to interface with.
 How about using some simple IMAP client code to check an email account
 periodically? Something like this:http://eppleton.sharedhost.de/blog/?p=176

  Hi, i am wondering how its possible to receive
   incoming emails on an android device.

  i can send out emails using

  private void sendEmail(String[] address, String subject, String msg) {
  Intent send = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
  send.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, address);
  send.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
  send.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, msg);
  send.setType(text/plain);
  startActivity(Intent.createChooser(send, MySendMail));
  }

  But i cant seem find a way to actually receive incoming new emails or
  even read emails stored in an inbox? the only inbox i have seen is the
  ones for SMS but nothing for emails.

  Not only for Emails but for SMS messages too. At first i thought i
  found a way using the SMS_RECIEVED intent but i during further
  investigation, this intent doesnt exist in the actual android SDK?

  Surely there is a way to listen out for new incoming SMS and emails?
  Thanks in advance.

Do you mean the intent no longer works, or that it is simply not documented on 
the Android dev site any more?

Sorry, I would usually write a quick JUnit test myself, but my time is 
currently consumed by other development work... I would be interested to hear 
your findings though.
