Thanking in Advance.
To answer your question I first ask you one.. Can you send mail with any of the available acount without logging in with your password? the answer is no. Because before sending mail you need to authenticate your acount with password. So this is must. If you can send mail without password then anybody can do the same which is definitely not wanted.
Can i send without giving my password?
Your mail server administrator is unlikely to allow password-less email sending, as soon a billion spammers will use your mail server.
You are welcome to write a Web service that will send email to your dedicated "contact-us" account. Or, have the Web service store the "contact-us" information elsewhere, such as a database.
You need to to authenticate to send mails. If you device already has applications you can use intents which will allow you the user to make a choice to sent mails using the desired application.

You can also hard code username and password and sent mails using javamail api.

I am developing an app wherein the users use either email and phone to perform registration.
Users can enter their email or phone for log in, I want the same OTP to be sent to mobile and email simultaneously. Please Help!
If you want to work only with Firebase Authentication, then there is not any suitable solution that meets your requirement.
Some limitations you can find with Firebase are Firebase Authentication Limits and Phone number sign-in limits.
However the alternative solution is using third-party SMS gateway. through with you can send OTP to phone number as well as to email also simultaneously.
Lets assume you already have mechanism to generate OTP and verify OTP from android app.
Now the problem is how to send OTP to the user's email.
One of solution is using MailGun service to send email from your backend.
Also, if you want to templating your email, you can use library called handlebar
When users register with my application, I want my application to automatically send some verification code to user email. I will generate verification code, but i don't know how to automatically send it to user email.
Give me some solution guys!!
NOTE!!!!!!!
I am not asking how to send email to someone which is like choosing email app and it populates subject and body in the application.
Then you have to use web services. when user register with your app, you store user registration information in server database. while inserting user record in database insert verification code in one column. (write a code to generate verification code in web service it self.) after successful inserting row in database. you can easily pick email and verification code. Now you have all details of user. Write a code in web service to send verification code in email to user.
Normally its done from the server side. Generating authentication token and sending it to a mail address using an SMTP server. for example mail in php.
If you really want to do it on android side which doesnt open any application and directly sends a mail to gmail, here is an alternative I could find.

But due to new gmail's 2-step verification, the I am not able to send mail from email id having this feature. Please suggest any method or change in the code by which I can send mail through the mail id having the 2-step verification.
Thanks.
With 2 Step security, you will need to generate an application specific password, and use that from your app.
