public class ForgotPassActivity extends Activity {
     EditText address, subject, emailbody, et_email;
    @Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.forgot_password);
    TextView textv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.lbl_loginhere);
    et_email = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.et_email);
    textv.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            ForgotPassActivity.this.finish();
            Intent intent = new Intent();
            intent.setClass(v.getContext(), LoginActivity.class);
            startActivity(intent);

    }
        //Code For Sending mail

    });
    Button b1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.submitButton);
    b1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            sendEmail();
        }

    });

}
    public void sendEmail(){


          final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
          emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
          emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, new String[]{"[e-mail]"});
          emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject.getText());
          emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, emailbody.getText());
          ForgotPassActivity.this.startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));

}


}

If you’re using any web service the better way is call the web service by passing the user email address and search in your database and fetch the record. For secure way passing data create the Post service and from your service like php or any another technology send the mail to the incoming email with it’s password.

Updated

you can use this function from your service mail() see for more info from the links and here is simple snippet of code

<?php
// The message
$message = "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3";

// In case any of our lines are larger than 70 characters, we should use wordwrap()
$message = wordwrap($message, 70);

// Send
mail('[e-mail]', 'My Subject', $message);
?>
