import android.widget.Toast;

@Override

        send = (Button) findViewById(R.id.send);

        send.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            public void onClick(View v) {

                // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                new Thread(new Runnable() {

                        }

                    }

                }).start();

            }

                                    "chandbecse@gmail.com",

                                    "******************");

                            sender.addAttachment(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath()+"/image.jpg");

                            sender.sendMail("Test mail", "This mail has been sent from android app along with attachment",

                                    "chandbecse@gmail.com",

                                    "chandbecse@gmail.com");






                        } catch (Exception e) {

                            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Error",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
                        }

                    }

                }).start();

            }

        });

    }

}

This class uses GMailSender class to set the sender email id, password.

using addAttachment method we specify path of file to be attached.

sendMail has four parameters namely subject, body text, senders name, recipients.

Add appropriate file path depending on device and a valid one.

Add Android manifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> - See more at: http://www.oodlestechnologies.com/blogs/Send-Mail-in-Android-without-Using-Intent#sthash.eUXWfjLg.dpuf
