Qml: sending email with Qt.openUrlExternally
Hello everybody,
I’m new to Qml and I’m trying to write an app, which should send an email when clicking a mouse area. This is, what I have already written:
- // import QtQuick 1.0 // to target S60 5th Edition or Maemo 5
- import QtQuick 1.1
- Rectangle {
- id: rectangle1
- width: 360
- height: 360
- MouseArea {
- id: sendButton
- width: parent.width/2
- height: parent.height/2
- anchors.horizontalCenter: parent.horizontalCenter
- anchors.verticalCenter: parent.verticalCenter
- onClicked: {
- "?subject=This is a subject" +
- "&body=This is the message")
- }
- Text {
- id: textSendeMail
- text: qsTr("Sende Mail")
- font.family: "MS Shell Dlg 2"
- anchors.fill: parent
- verticalAlignment: Text.AlignVCenter
- horizontalAlignment: Text.AlignHCenter
- font.pixelSize: 16
- }
- }
- }
Now, when clicking this area, Outlook starts. I mean, this is clear, as the name says to open the url externally. But is there a way to send an email directly, without opening Outlook.
I wrote such a function in C# already, maybe it would be easier to understand, what I mean, when I just show you the C#-Code:
- MailMessage message = new MailMessage();
- message.Subject = "This is the subject";
- message.Body = "Here is the message";
- message.From = new MailAddress("noreply@myaddress.com");
- message.To = new MailAddress("destination@address.com");
- SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient(ip);
- smtp.Send(message);

The QtQuick module itself doesn’t provide any support for this. There are a number of plugins available, including a Messaging plugin (see http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtmobility/qml-plugins.html for the list of plugins), though from a quick look it appears it only supports reading messages. If that is the case, you might need to write your own C++ plugin to handle this functionality.

Michael
