In my website (under development), the members can send messages to each other which are sent directly to their email, now I'm worried that some members can send spam to other members (I have a spam filter but it doesn't give 100% protection as you know), I'm worried that my domain might get blacklisted on Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail or AOL wh...
Hello everyone, I am a PHP developer who is kind of in a pickle. I'm trying to locate and/or build an API capable of speaking to Hotmail, Yahoo and GMAIL in order to retrieve contact lists (with the user's consent, of course). The one I'm having the most trouble finding is a Hotmail API. Where would I start to look as far as finding ei...
We run a large online community in the Netherlands. Because of that we send a lot of mail to the hotmail email addresses of our members. Recently we have noticed that not all mail is reaching our members, because we have hit a certain limit or so it seems. Google doesn't give a solution (yet) but we see a lot of others having the same p...
most of social networks does this. when you register one of them for example twitter it says why dont you invite your friends from hotmail or yahoo or gmail. and expect us to give our credentials and send those mails. I want to implement same feature in java. I tried http://code.google.com/p/contactlistimporter but it has a problem with...
Iam looking to write a C# application to alert the user when he gets an email on his hotmail account. I have already gone through http://www.codeproject.com/KB/IP/httpmail.aspx But seems that Microsoft has discontinued it now. http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1652391,00.asp I looked to the Live SDK but couldn't find any mail rela...
Hello all, There are a few APIs for grabbing the address book/contact list from the major providers of email. I was wondering do APIs like this exist for grabbing emails/messages received? Thanks all EDIT I am sure I can do this myself. However, I don't want to "re-invent" the wheel if someone has done it already. Probably better th...
Hi, I'm looking for library/API to retrieve contact list (emails address to which user had sent mail to, regardless whether user had explicitly added it as contact ). Anybody know such library/API available there? Thanks kandy ...
I've changed our website's contacts import mechanism to use the Windows Live Contacts API for importing contacts from Hotmail. Now I'd like to be able to detect when an email a user gives us is a hotmail email address so I can route them through this path. Currently I'm leaning towards just using a regex to match something like /^(ms...
I want to write an application using Java6 that can check a users Hotmail inbox for the 'unread message count'! There is a Javascript API but I will not have a browser instance, and it seems that I need one to use it. (see stakoverflow question: 964392 ) I can use POP3, but since it does not support flags, I can only tell how many 'new...
I am planning to build a site with openID authentication , most of my target users will register in the site using Microsoft accounts (hotmail/live/windowslive). Is there anyway to use Microsoft accounts as openID? ...
I am trying to build a proof of concept for a project, in which i have to display the user contacts once he sign in to live account. I have gone through the corresponding SDK. But the problem is, i don't have any ONLINE domain to test it. I am building a POC and whatever i want to do is to do on localhost. using the sample code provided...
I want to script the download of messages from hotmail. Both Gmail and Hotmail allow access by secure POP on port 995. My script works fine with Gmail ... but after I send the line to Hotmail USER [email protected] I don't get a response back. I installed Windows Live Mail and that is clearly able to download my hotmail mess...
I might be missing something but I'm trying to implement a contacts retrieval mechanism akin to the one that is offered by Google for Yahoo and Hotmail. Both APIs seem to require the user to actually go to their sites to log in. The documentation is really convoluted for both. I was hoping someone has done this and can point me to a sim...
Is there a script somewhere (doesn't matter what language although it would be best if it can run on linux) that can fetch for simple things from the hotmail/live mail web page? Of course the main motivation for this is that hotmail does not allow for IMAP access and their pop access is limited to 15 minute check and YET still does not p...
I know there are a lot of commercial applications on different platform (windows, firefox, even the iPhone) that can read emails from hotmail. I'm trying to build a similar function into my software. Where can I find sample of this code? Hotmail does not support IMAP, only POP so a lot of things are possible through the "official" mean...
I am creating a web-page/website that integrates all my accounts into one spectrum, as in, from this page I want to use this page to log into my mail box online or any other site that requires authentication. All i want is a central login panel. enter my unname&passwd and get redirected to my mail. Is that an impossible question to ask? ...

Does anybody know how I would go about creating a new hotmail account from C# ? Screenscraping and POSTing ? or is there a simpler way ? ...
Hi, I'm trying to see if it is possible to put some text over an image without using position: absolute or having the image being, the background of an element. The reason for the constraints is that the HTML code is going into an e-mail, and it turns out that hotmail supports neither. I remember that when I first began studying CSS, fid...
I would like to write a script that logs into hotmail and changes the first and last name. I am thinking of perl for this, although I imagine that any language would do. How do I find out what requests to make? I'm guessing that I can do the change requests manually, determine what http requests are being sent to/from the server, determ...
