Android Question Touchdown email intent

[Sannie72]

Hello,

I want to send an email using my company email client Nitrodesk Touchdown HD (8.3.00058). However, when I use the email object from the Phone (2.20) library, all that happens is Touchdown opens a new email, but nothing is entered. The 'To' field is empty, as is the email body.
When I select an other email client, eg. GMail, the same fields are filled as expected.
Does anyone have the same experience or better yet, a solution?

Sorry if I say so, but check your code. It seems to me impossible.

Seems like the default mail client app doesn't properly handle the intent values. You can force it to use gmail.

This is the solution I came up with, instead of using the mail intent I created an intent from scratch:

    Dim sEmail() As String = Array As String(PrefManager.GetString("emailto1"),"")
    Dim sCcEmail() As String = Array As String(PrefManager.GetString("emailcc1"),PrefManager.GetString("email"))
    Dim Intent1 As Intent
    Intent1.Initialize(Intent1.ACTION_SEND,"")
    Intent1.SetType("application/zip")
    Intent1.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.SUBJECT",sSubject.ToString)
    Intent1.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.EMAIL",sEmail)
    Intent1.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.CC",sCcEmail)
    Intent1.PutExtra("android.intent.extra.TEXT",sb.ToString)
    Try
    StartActivity(Intent1)
    Catch
    Log("CreateMail: Start Activity Failed... ")
    End Try

This is just a snippet of the complete code, but it shows what you can do. When I code it this way, also Touchdown (8.5.00094) works as email client. Hope this helps!
