Q: 

How to import email contacts from various email service providers in a website?

Hi,

I am trying to implement a email invitation tool that can be used by a member in my website and invite his contacts over email to review blogs. But I am not able to find a way to design the tool for multiple email service providers so that I can reach out to a maximum crowd. I have experimented with Google Contacts API in JavaScript and I works good but I want some directive to do the same for other email providers too. Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks Arun

Hi,

You can try OpenInviter (www.openinviter.com). They provide an API for PHP to import email contacts from several email providers. Check their demo here (openinviter.com/demo/)

Thanks for the advise, but I am looking for something in javascript or better in asp.net.

OpenInviter is an open API and can be used with absolutely any language.
