Frame a String in the format String URI="mailto:?subject=" + subject + "&body=" + body;

and 

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
Uri data = Uri.parse(URI);
intent.setData(data);
startActivity(intent);

This will open up the default e-mail program selected by the user.

Linkify does it this way. Check out it's source code, if you like.

You can used the following code to open whatever intent you want eg gmail, facebook, email etc..Simple in the type as used in my code pass "gmail" if you want to open gmail, pass "face" if u want to open facebook

Intent intent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND); 
intent.setType("text/html");
List<ResolveInfo> resInfo = getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(intent, 0);

if (!resInfo.isEmpty())
{
    for (ResolveInfo info : resInfo) 
    {
    if (info.activityInfo.packageName.toLowerCase().contains(type) || info.activityInfo.name.toLowerCase().contains(type)) 
    {
            intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, htmlBody);
            intent.setPackage(info.activityInfo.packageName);   
            startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, getResources().getString(R.string.share_send_text)));
        }
}
