Question

I’m a newbie in android. Please help me. I’m not able to send email to multiple recipients.
Here is my code.

public class SendEmailActivity extends Activity{

EditText subject_ed,message_ed;
TextView subject_tv,message_tv;
Button send_btn;

 ArrayList<String> emailList;
 ArrayList<Integer> idList;
 int eventId;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.contacts_email_sms_layout);
    setupViews();
    Intent intent = getIntent();
    Bundle b = intent.getExtras();
    eventId =  b.getInt("EventId");//event id
    idList = b.getIntegerArrayList("IdList");//list of Ids
    emailList = b.getStringArrayList("EmailList");//list of email ids
    buttonListeners();
}

public void setupViews()
{
    subject_ed = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ed_subject_email);
    message_ed = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.ed_msg_body);
    subject_tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv_subject_email);
    message_tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.tv_msg_body);
    send_btn = (Button)findViewById(R.id.btn_send_sms_email);
}               

public void buttonListeners()
{
    send_btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Email sent",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
            // String to = textTo.getText().toString();
              String subject = subject_ed.getText().toString();
              String message = message_ed.getText().toString();
            Object[] to =  emailList.toArray();
//            for(int i = 0; i<=emailList.size(); i++)
////                  {
////                      
//                  String  to=   emailList.get(0);
////                     
////                  }



              Intent email = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
              for(int i = 0; i < to.length; i++)
                {
                    Log.i("String is", (String)to[i]);
                    //String[] str = (String[])to[i];
                     email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,",'" +(String)to[i] + "'");
                }

              email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
              email.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);

              //need this to prompts email client only
              email.setType("message/rfc822");

              startActivity(Intent.createChooser(email, "Choose an Email client :"));
             // finish();
        }
    });
}

}

First your conversion from List to String[] is wrong you need to do as follows..

List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
String[] arrayOfStrings = list.toArray(new String[list.size()]);

And next thing is you need to mention android.Content.Intent as follows..

So finally you need to change as follows

ArrayList<String> emailList;
emailList = b.getStringArrayList("EmailList");
String[] emailArray;

Intent email = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);

for(int i = 0; i < to.length; i++){
    Log.i("String is", (String)to[i]);
    email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, 
                   emailList.toArray(new String[emailList.size()]));
}
email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, subject);
email.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, message);    
email.setType("message/rfc822"); //or email.setType("text/plain");

startActivity(Intent.createChooser(email, "Choose an Email client :"));
