I tried the code available in the link mentioned by Sky, but it did not work for me. I implemented it as below.

public boolean isEmailSetup() {
        AccountManager am = AccountManager.get(HomeScreen.this);
        Account[] accounts = am.getAccounts();
        return accounts.length > 0;
    }

You need to specify the permisson <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS"/> in you AndroidMenifest.xml

I'm assuming you don't actually want to send an email, and instead want to simply check. But if you are after the first one, then you can try this example:
