Look up the definition of explicit intents vs. implicit intents. What you want is an explicit intent. The link posted by Pankaj is not relevant here. – Stephan Branczyk Feb 18 '14 at 08:02

Generally, if you want to launch a specific application, you use an explicit Intent, instead of an implicit one.
However, there is no such thing as a default email client in Android. Many manufacturers, eg Samsung install their own one, and some people use that, some use Gmail.
Android already has a way to let the user set the default via the Chooser dialog, so I would recommend you to rely on that.
