This code works without problems.

String text2 = new StringBuilder() .append("<p><b>Some Content</b></p>") .append("<small><p>More content</p></small>") .toString(); Intent emailIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.fromParts("mailto", "", null)); emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, getString(R.string.app_name) + ": " + getString(R.string.task_list) + " " + title); emailIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(text2)); startActivity(Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, getString(R.string.send_email)));

but if you change the html code text2 to

  String text2 = new StringBuilder() .append("<p><b>Some Content</b></p>") .append("<table border=\"1\">\n" + " <caption>Title</caption>\n" + " <tr>\n" + " <th>1 column</th>\n" + " <th>2 column</th>\n" + " </tr>\n" + " <tr><td>text1</td><td>text2</td></tr>\n" + " <tr><td>text1</td><td>text2</td></tr>\n" + " </table>") .toString();

then html formatting does not work, maybe the problem is in the tag itself or not?

If my memory does not change, then the gmail client on Android does not support the table tag.

And the same TextView / EditText also does not support the table .
