How to send e-mail

Hi all,

 

Is it possible to call the Playbook's native e-mail client? For example: call a "mailto:lorem@ipsum.com"? and then open it in the email app.

 

Thanks,

Ricardo Masao Shigeoka

Re: How to send e-mail

Hi there,

At this point, there is no native email client for the PlayBook. Do you mean to pull up the bridged email from a connected BlackBerry Smartphone?

(Note: while I'm not a developer, this answer should help another developer answer your question).

Thanks for the answer,

 

But what I mean is, in my application, I have a button and when I click on it, I would like to open an interface for the user can send an e-mail.

 

Like a html tag <a href:"mailto:lorem@ipsum.com">.

 

Thanks

That command will trigger the Bridge email app, but it will only work if a user has a Bridged BlackBerry smartphone, or at least until a native email app is made available.
