I am trying to implement an HTML format mail using the Java mail in android. I would like to get results like this:

enter image description here

When I look at the html format sent from lookout in my GMAIL. I don't see any link, but just has this format:

 [image: Lookout_logo]
 [image: Signal_flare_icon] Your battery level is really low, so we located

your device with Signal Flare.

I was trying the following:

                    Properties props = System.getProperties();
        props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true"); // added this line
        props.put("mail.smtp.host", host);
        props.put("mail.smtp.user", from);
        props.put("mail.smtp.password", pass);
        props.put("mail.smtp.port", "587");
        props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");

        javax.mail.Session session = javax.mail.Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
        MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);

        message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));

        InternetAddress[] toAddress = new InternetAddress[to.length];

        // To get the array of addresses
        for( int i=0; i < to.length; i++ )
        {
            // changed from a while loop
            toAddress[i] = new InternetAddress(to[i]);
        }

        message.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.BCC, toAddress);

        message.setSubject(sub);
        //message.setText(body);
                    body = "<!DOCTYPE html><html><body><img src=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krka_National_Park#mediaviewer/File:Krk_waterfalls.jpg\">";
        message.setContent(body, "text/html; charset=utf-8"); 

        Transport transport = session.getTransport("smtp");
        transport.connect(host, from, pass);
        transport.sendMessage(message, message.getAllRecipients());
        transport.close();

When I look at the html format sent with the above code. I get the following:

<!DOCTYPE html><html><body><img src="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krka_National_Park#mediaviewer/File:Krk_waterfalls.jpg>

How to make sure the user will not be able to see any html code or URL link like the mail sent by LOOKOUT?

Thanks!
