How to send email by clicking text view links

I have to show a normal text as a link and if I click the link it should open the mail page with "TO" mail address auto filled. I showed the text view as a link as follows:

TextView EmailLink;    
EmailLink = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.lblPrivacyPara21);
EmailLink.setText(Html.fromHtml("hello <a href=\"mailto:vigneshdharma@gmail.com\">my@email.com</a>"));

But it isn't working for me. The words came as a link but are not showing mail intent while clic开发者_开发知识库king the link.

If you set the "autoLink" property in the TextView in your layout it works and looks much easier:

android:autoLink="email"

You can open an email intent and bind onClick event on textView.

Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
startActivity(emailIntent); 

I have use the fallowing code for sending email you should change according to your condition.

public class ContactUSActivity extends MenuActivity {
private HttpURLConnection conn;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.contactus);

    final EditText nameText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.contactnametextContectUS);
    final EditText emailText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.emailaddresstextContectUS);
    final EditText commentText = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.commenttextContectUS);

    Button submitBtn = (Button) findViewById(R.id.ButtonLoginContectUS);

    submitBtn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() 
    {
        public void onClick(View v) 
        {
            if (GUIStatiMethods.connectionCheck(ContactUSActivity.this)) {
                String name = nameText.getText().toString();
                String email = emailText.getText().toString();
                String comment = commentText.getText().toString();
                Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(".+@.+\\.[a-z]+");
                Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(email);
                boolean matchFound = matcher.matches();
                if (name.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
                    GUIStatiMethods.showMessageDialog(
                            ContactUSActivity.this, "Please enter name");
                } else if (name.length() > 20) {
                    GUIStatiMethods.showMessageDialog(
                            ContactUSActivity.this,
                            "Name should be less then 20 character");
                } else if (email.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
                    GUIStatiMethods.showMessageDialog(
                            ContactUSActivity.this, "Please enter email");
                } else if (!(matchFound)) {
                    GUIStatiMethods.showMessageDialog(
                            ContactUSActivity.this,
                            "Invalid email address.");
                } else if (comment.equalsIgnoreCase("")) {
                    GUIStatiMethods.showMessageDialog(
                            ContactUSActivity.this, "Please enter comment");
