Title: Facebook emails and how to import them in IOSNewsletter component ...
Post by: cardinal 22 on December 20, 2011, 16:46:35: Step 1:
Download the pspadeditor ( http://www.pspad.com/en/ ) and install.

Step 2:
We install the latest IOSNewsletter

Step 3:
Τo get the emails from our friends from facebook will have do a little diplomatic maneuvering ... We go to login.yahoo.com and click where it says connecting via facebook, give all necessary information will need to eventually have loaded a fresh inbox of Yahoo, and miraculously contacts are all friends from facebook .. At the tab of Yahoo "contacts" ...

Step 4:
Once kidnapped by evil but lawful way our friends from facebook to yahoo and while we are still connected to our new account in yahoo, press here: http://address.yahoo.com/?_src=&VPC=tools_export

Step5:
We choose as a method to extract "Yahoo! CSV:" and click export ..

Step 6:
Now we have in our hands the archive to clear it before work for us, we open the Pspadeditor and deleting all the first line, then go to the Find menu -> find and replace in files, tick the checkbox find replacement files and in the field finding: we erase the spaces (press once the space bar), the ears "" "and the word facebook until finally have the effect of:"Name","","Surname"," " , "username@domain.com"," Facebook ","","","","","","","","", look exactly like that: Name,Surname,username@domain.com

Step 7:
Enter the field at the start of each line by pressing alt + i to Pspad editor as follows:
choose the numbering and say by what number we want to start the numbering and the field as the dot to do comma (usually 0 or 1, but if we have in the iosnewsletter and other customers, then put the next number from the last one seen in the fields of newletter eg 789) press ok and it should be loaded all the numbers in a row.
Then again alt + I and select the field to the top of the line, leave blank the top of the line and make 2 comma at the end of the line and click OK again ...

Step 8:
Final result of the line should be just so: 789,Name,Surname,username@domain.com,,
Make sure that the code page is UTF-8 DOS TEXT and do save as a *. txt course .....

Step 9:
Open the elxis -> components -> iosnewslleter -> import subscribers -> and select your file! voila!!

Was it difficult? ::) ::) ::) ::) ::)

Yahoo, Hotmail, Windowslive, and Gmail all allow the export of the email addresses that everyone saves.

Extracting Facebook email addresses is very different and needs programming using the FB api.

I thought that you may do the steps as required for the contacts to apear at your yahoo account. Also i have to mention that accounts that have their emails locked to anyone, can't imported from nowhere....
