How can I get email address

I'm using code like this to get gmail email using content provider. My problem is that the "fromAddress" field contains sender's name instead of sender's email. For example 开发者_如何学Goit will contain "John Doe" but I would like to have "john.doe@somewhere.net".

The name in the field is the one set by the user in its email client, it does not come from my android contacts.

Here's the code I'm using:

ContentResolver resolver = context.getContentResolver();
cursor = resolver.query(Uri.parse("content://gmail-ls/conversations/myemail@gmail.com/", null, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
String fromAddress = cursor.getString(cursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow("fromAddress")));
cursor.close();

I know the email is not in any fields coming from this URI. I've tried with this kind of URI: "content://gmail-ls/messages/myemail@gmail.com/39920384203052" but it always return a cursor with 0 records for a valid messageId.

Please help me get the sender's email for a given gmail email...

Thank you!

Start an Activity for Result

Intent intent = new new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, Contacts.CONTENT_URI);

startActivityForResult(contactPickerIntent, CONTACT_PICKER_RESULT);

OnActivityResult

Uri result = data.getData();  
String con = result.getLastPathSegment();
cursor = getContentResolver().query(Phone.CONTENT_URI,  
                    null, Phone.CONTACT_ID + "=?", new String[] { con },  
                    null);
int id = cursor.getColumnIndex(Phone.DATA);
if(cursor.moveToFirst()){
    String mail = cursor.getString(id);
    Log.e("Email", mail);
}

I haven't been able to find any documentation on the GMail content provider for android but this might help you.

Open up a HttpRequest object and send it here - https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom Once you authenticate (standard HTTP auth) then you should get a XML feed of your inbox.

From there you can parse it. The field you are looking for is entry->author->email.

Hope this helps!
