Answer 1

this is how you send an HTML email to someone:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
intent.setType("plain/html");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[] {"[e-mail]", "[e-mail]"});
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject");
intent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml("my html text goes here"));
startActivity(intent);

to send an email with a PNG attachment, where pngDirectory is a File pointing to the images’ location, and pngFileName is the file name of the file(myFile.png):

String pngLocation = "file://" + pngDirectory.getPath() + "/" + pngFileName;
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND)
            .setType("image/png")
            .putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "subject")
            .putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.parse(pngLocation))
            .putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "blah")
        );
