What technique should I use to replicate a Compose email view in an iphone application?

Question

So, I have an application that includes sending emails through the API. I would like to have the same or similar interface to create an email interface available by telephone already.

Unfortunately, in all Goodness apples there is no representation that just does it.

[AppleComposeMailViewController alloc];

It would be nice to do the trick.

So, I started using the strategy of using UItableViewController. I had success until I tried to add a dynamically expanding cell at the end for Content.

Should I continue this path or try to implement from a UIScrollView base?

If table view is the way I would like to get a TextView in the last cell, which expands as a custom type.

IF I go to UIScrollView, what are some strategies that I can use to simplify the implementation of the top table, such as views.

Answer 1

check out the excellent “email” composer in “Structure 320” ( screenshot )

Answer 2

IPhone OS 3.0 is available in the Email application and should do what you describe. Check MessageUI.
