emaildialog works in simulator but not on phone???

In my code, a button opens an email dialog. It works great in the iphone simulator, but never appears in my actual iphone (3g, running os4.0)

I've got alerts popping up before and after, just to troubleshoot, and both alerts appear, but no emaildialog.

I've even tried it in a blank test project with nothing else going on, and still nothing on the phone.

Is this an OS4 bug? and why would the simulator do it…?

thanks!

    If you don't have a mail account set up for the phone, it does nothing. I experienced that when i first got my iphone 4.

    • It works for me, do you know if there's a way to check if a mail account exist?

  • I have come across this issue today, too.
    Is there any way to catch this? If the user clicks a button in my Ti App to send an email, I would like to give the user feedback that he has to create an account first.
