ios - Launch Apple Mail App from within my own App?

Question

What I already found is

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"mailto:"]];

But I just want to open the Mail app not only a composer view. Just the mail app in its normal or last state.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Apparently Mail application supports 2nd url scheme - message:// which ( I suppose) allows to open specific message if it was fetched by the application. If you do not provide message url it will just open mail application:

NSURL* mailURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"message://"];
if ([[UIApplication sharedApplication] canOpenURL:mailURL]) {
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:mailURL];
}
