-(void)sendButtonClicked

{

Class mailClass = (NSClassFromString(@"MFMailComposeViewController"));

if (mailClass != nil){

// To check whether the current device is configured for sending emails or not

if ([mailClass canSendMail]){    [self displayComposerSheet];  }

else{   [self launchMailAppOnDevice];  }

}

else{  [self launchMailAppOnDevice];}

} // End sendButtonClicked

-(void)displayComposerSheet

{

MFMailComposeViewController *picker = [[MFMailComposeViewController alloc] init];

picker.mailComposeDelegate = self;

[picker setSubject:@"Enter Subject line here!"];

// Set up recipients

NSArray *toRecipients = [NSArray arrayWithObject:@"first@example.com"];

NSArray *ccRecipients = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"second@example.com", @"third@example.com", nil];

NSArray *bccRecipients = [NSArray arrayWithObject:@"fourth@example.com"];

[picker setToRecipients:toRecipients];

[picker setCcRecipients:ccRecipients];

[picker setBccRecipients:bccRecipients];

// To Attach an image to the email

NSString *path = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"attachment" ofType:@"png"];

NSData *myData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:path];

[picker addAttachmentData:myData mimeType:@"image/png" fileName:@"attachment"];

// Add text to email body

NSString *emailBody = @"This is email body, change text as per your requirements!";

[picker setMessageBody:emailBody isHTML:NO];

- (void)mailComposeController:(MFMailComposeViewController*)controller didFinishWithResult:(MFMailComposeResult)result error:(NSError*)error

{

// show alert to users about errors associated with the interface

switch (result)

{

case MFMailComposeResultCancelled:
