asked on

connect to mail providers and synchronize/ get addresses

I recently came across several communities that allow users to check if other people they know are already on there or not. The following site use this successfully "Flaxio.net and NetLog.com". I found a rather simple application that can do this called Plaxo, but I would rather have this branded to my own site. Please tell me if you know of any direct connection with the different email providers (MSN, AIM, etc) to achieve this.  To test Flaxio and Netlog you will need to create a sample account. For Netlog this is part of the sign-up process. (simply said: i would like to connect to mail providers and synchronize/ get addresses)
 Thanks

I believe you will have to use service provider like :
http://svetlozar.net/
Otherwise all of the e-mail providers will have their terms and conditions and API's to follow, not very efficent i think.
"Please tell me if you know of any direct connection with the different email providers (MSN, AIM, etc) to achieve this"

They don't even talk to each other, how are you going to get an app that will link to disparate interfaces, which by the way, are all web-page interfaces.  These are not true email clients, they are just WEB MAIL.
