    anyone know how i can access email
    contents?

    The Email program is not part of the SDK. It can be replaced on Android devices. The content providers can change in future versions of Android. The user might not be using that email program in the first place, using Gmail, K-9, or another third party application.

    There is a useful discussion of all the reasons preventing email from being accessed via the OS: http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.android.devel/137111
