Email feature support in Corona Simulator?

Hi all,

i am following http://www.coronalabs.com/blog/2012/01/03/composing-email-and-sms-in-corona/

But it seems like the email doens’t pop up…

Does it run in Corona Simulator? if not, iOS simulator? or only actual app?

Thanks for the clarification.

When you call the function (native.showPopup), it will open up a new e-mail composition in your device’s e-mail app. The fields you do not include in your options table will be blank, but users will have the option of populating this info on their own (as usual). They are solely responsible for actually sending the message.

On the Corona OSX simulator, this means any attempt to use email will load OSX’s registered mail app (usually apple’s own Mail app). On iOS, this means loading the default mail.app. I’m not sure what happens in Windows, but it would hopefully load whatever email application you have that is set to default.

Anyway, at no point will a popup appear in your app using this method.
