If sending via app, user intervention is required.

Without user intervention, you can send as follows:

  1. Send email from client apk. Here mail.jar, activation.jar is required to send java email. If these jars are added, it might increase the APK Size. Link

  2. Alternatively, You can use a web-service at the server side code, which will use the same mail.jar and activation.jar to send email. You can call the web-service via asynctask and send email. Refer same link

No, you cant send mail from gmail without user intervention, Doing so will raise security issue. Only thing you can call that app via intent as you did above. Or else you can use any java mail API for sending mails.
