Hi Everyone! After several months of not making extensions, I'm finally back with an extension, and this is my tenth extension. As you can see, this extension looks very simple, but don't underestimate it because it has a big impact. My motivation for making this extension actually started from a project I worked on with AI2. That project persuaded me to look for an extension that can send an email with some files, but it's tough to find. I've been trying all day to search until I'm sweating, but I can't find the extension that suits me. Most of them can do that only via SMTP, so I decided to make an extension that only uses the "Power of Android Class Intent" and can send an email with multiple files and can also be sent by various email apps such as Outlook, Yandex Mail, Yahoo Mail, Gmail, etc. For its uniqueness, there are three things that make this extension unique: it can send multiple files; it can send an email by various apps; and it runs with Android Class Intent.
This extension won't be updated anymore, that's why I've provided the source code.

see very simple right, you just need to separate it with commas
A nice extension; however, most of the functionality can be done with built-in blocks already. Intent is actually the ActivityStarter component in AppInventor. I don't think intent would be a good choice for verification emails, as this requires user interaction to send.
Yup, I already knew about that before I made this extension.
There is even a simpler way than the one you show me. But there is some weakness in the activity starter that forces me to make this extension, which cannot do some of the things below
Indeed I did not make this extension for verification emails ,
and indeed this extension requires user interaction to send. as we know many extensions use "intent" to send email but most of them didn't provide complete functions, therefore I made the complete one which can be claimed as the full version
Is it possible to send some files as well, and is it possible to send an email to other than Gmail?
If you use Google Apps Script, it does not need verification, and by default it sends to all mailboxes that the email address possesses...therefore the mail will appear in each inbox, I believe.
Nice extension, but I'm still looking for a way to send an e-mail withought
the user seeing the actual mail-app in their screen.
I know that in case of the app 'Mail' you have to specify incoming and outgoing
mailserver, so is it possible to do this with Gmail (or other webbased mail app)?
