How can I send an email from android application directly without showing the default email form of the device?

Question

I am building a form that sends emails from an android application, I am using Intents to send the email, that is:

Intent sendIntent;
sendIntent = new Inten         


        

Answer 1

From what I have been able to find people suggest you write your own mini email app within your app. The following link is to a person who did just that:

Keep in mind to scroll through the bottom comments when you get stuck implementing certain parts. I hope that helps you from reinventing the wheel. :)

There are two ways

1) using SMTP follow the link for details

2) using Webservice( for example PHP script ) so there is a server side code and you hit that URL with param like ( name,subject etc) so basically PHP code send mail at the end and it's very easy to use .

Personally, I suggest you use Webservice
