Question

intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, \"emailaddress@emailaddress.com\");

Answer 1

If you want to target Gmail then you could do the following. Note that the intent is "ACTION_SENDTO" and not "ACTION_SEND" and the extra intent fields are not necessary for Gmail.

String uriText =
    "mailto:youremail@gmail.com" + 
    "?subject=" + Uri.encode("your subject line here") + 
    "&body=" + Uri.encode("message body here");

Uri uri = Uri.parse(uriText);

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO);
sendIntent.setData(uri);
if (sendIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
   startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, "Send message")); 
}
