android - Email Intent not showing the chooser

Question

I'm using the following to initiate the sending of an email:

Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
i.setType("message/rfc882"); 
i.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{s});
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "Send mail..."));

The problem that I'm having is that (on my phone) it pulls up Gmail's Compose window instead of allowing me to choose which email client I'd like to send the message with.

Am I doing this wrong, or does the default email client just not respond to email send intents?

Answer 1

It might not respond to message/rfc882 Intents. Try text/plain instead, if you can, as I'm pretty sure that works.
