How to fetch the configured Email id

Can you please clarify what you mean by "The Email id as configured by the user is required sometimes in the applications for e.g. which require to set the Email as pre-filled field in an editor or form etc. " ? I did not understand this.

I just referred to a condition in an application in which the user sometimes want to send an email to someone from the default email id as configured in his device, so it might be convenient to provide the user his default email id(let say pre-filled in some editior ) instead of making him enter it in the app.

Thanks
