it's very easy to send an Email with data taken from an EditText 

String mail = "this is the Email message body";
i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); // start the activity for sending an email
i.setType("vnd.android.cursor.dir/email"); //set the mime type for the Email
i.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "FW: " + "subject");
String[] to = {editText.getText().toString()};
i.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL, to);

i.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, Html.fromHtml(mail));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(i, "EMAIL"));

there are 2 ways

1- using native email app Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); it will open the screen with data pre-filled in form. You have to send data in intent.

2- Send without native app

Sending Email in Android using JavaMail API without using the default/built-in app
