A:
You just need to check for any webservice (online) API's of the vendor in question. You can obtain Gmail contacts by the Google Contacts API and Yahoo contacts by the Yahoo Contacts API.
In your JSF backing bean action method, just call the API as per its developer's documentation (Gmail here and Yahoo here). Nothing special JSF-ish needs to be done. A backing bean is after all just Java code.

You have to be more specific in describing the **actual** problem which causes that you "cannot proceed". The developer's documentation is pretty clear.
