If I have this code:
B4X:
Message.Body = "Normal <b>Bold</b> Normal<br />" & _
"Normal <b>Bold</b> Normal<br />" & _
"<table>" & _
"<tr><td>1</td><td>2</td></tr>" & _
"<tr><td>33333333333</td><td>444444444</td></tr>" & _
"</table>" & _
"Normal <b>Bold</b> Normal<br />" & _
"Normal <b>Bold</b> Normal<br />"
StartActivity(Message.GetHtmlIntent)I receive an e-mail with this content:
Normal Bold Normal
Normal Bold Normal
1233333333333444444444Normal Bold Normal
Normal Bold Normal
The text in bold is in bold, but the text in table (1 / 2 / 3333 / 4444) is not in a table.

I was not expecting that!
It seems to be a real android limitation:

In real world HTML pages I use CSS for such formatting (width and alignment).
But unfortunately Android has also an limitation in CSS support.

I don't know how but I *had* HTML email working until my devices got updated to ICS.
I'm still digging for ideas, but I ran across this article:
Why can't I get my HTML email to look great on Android devices? - Campaign Monitor
In there is a link to the a table that shows which CSS tags are compatible with which email clients...

Hope this helps!

B4X:
Dim l2 AsList
l2.Initialize
l2.Add("file://" & File.DirDefaultExternal & "/feedback.db")
....
message.attachments = l2

i mean instead of doing it with message.attachment.add do it with this list...
the file there is only a example file... use whatever you need to send

If you want to put a table in the MESSAGE-BODY then the message body have to be a Content-Type of
"Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"
in the header...
But, i´m sorry, i dont know how to do that with android... If i want to send html-email i would do it with PHP and a good php-mailer-class...

raphaelcno thanks for your reply, but adding the </b> did not change the result..
Ive edited my first post tho, without the </b> it still do makes the words bold but nevertheless ive add it to retain good html formatting .
Ive tested it in from emulator , HTC One 8 and Tablet 1.0 - same result.
Any other suggestions ?

The problem is in the mail client. The message is sent as is.
Try to change the style. Maybe with this html: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6115197/embed-html-table-in-email

Thanks for the reply Erel.
The example in the link you shared did not resolve the issue , the solution was to replace the string "=" to "=3D"..
You did mentioned it in this post http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/new-net-library-android-ftp-smtp-and-pop3.10892/#content
Awesome that i bumped into it.Thanks a bunch , Erel !!
