I found this link to retrieve contacts from gmail really helpful.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/x-phpgooglecontact/index.html
I like to simplicity of using directly the username and password to retrieve the contacts list.
I have searched the web but I can't find a similar solution for yahoo and hotmail. Do you know if and how it can be done?
I am aware of the oAuth library but I find this closer to my needs.
This one is to retrieve contacts from yahoo.

Is there an API to look up the same information that I can get from Gmail if I type someone's email address into Gmail's search bar and hit search? For most Gmail addresses, this shows me the person's full name.
I ask for people's email address when they sign up on my website, but not for their names. I'd like to add a personal greeting to the emails that I send out. Note that people have NOT signed up using Google+.
You're looking for the new People API.
I'm looking for a way to allow Yahoo application to read user's emails over IMAP. It works well for old applications (that were created before Yahoo Mail API has deprecated), but trying to access IMAP for new applications gives me an error
[AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] (#AUTH007) Bad scope.
Unfortunately, I have no idea how to add a correct scope for accessing IMAP for new applications. During creation of the app, I was not given a choice to add scope with name even looking like 'mail'.
Is Yahoo API just broken or there is some tricky way to work around?

Now I know this might be an easy one for some people but I can't seem to find the answer.
Does anyone have a solution in asp.net to loop through emails listed within Gmail where I can loop through each of the emails and get the address details, the content and any attachments.
I then want to save the details to a db (easy bit)
I am just looking for the listing emails script for a given date.
Is this easy to do? I am doing it in asp.net so any examples in this would be great in VB format.
Thanks
Jon
You should start of by referring to the Google Gmail API. As you will note Google does not make it too easy to just query and fetch emails.. That's what Gmail is for!
But of course you could create your own IMAP client as Gmail offers supports the same.
I found this IMAP client library, but its in C#.
Hope this helps.
I am creating an app that needs to connect to the Gmail server and fetch the inbox emails and sort them out and store them in core data modal. I have no idea on how I could integrate this gmail into my app. Is there api available in Gmail, that would work with NSURLConnection.
Consider using POP or IMAP?
Gmail offers RSS feeds for Inboxes http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=18218
I don't think there's a Gmail API.
I found something that lets me read the email in the form of atom feed,
requesting to the following url could fetch my email in XML format :
https://USERNAME:PASSWORD#gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom
Thank you for your suggestion. Helped me lot !
There is a new Gmail API now:

I need to fetch Gmail contacts by providing a gmail username and password.
Any frameworks, Api's, Sample codes..
I know about XMPPframework that can fetch gmail chat contacts. but i want contacts from gmail address book.
Any help would be appreciated..
I have used the Google Data Api Obj-C client (http://code.google.com/p/gdata-objectivec-client/). I have never used it for Contacts but it supports them. It may be a good starting point.
