That shouldn't be too hard and would be a good start. Thanks. However, my real need is to go in the other direction. In MH-E, you can run `M-x mh-alias-grab-from-field to add an alias for the current sender to your aliases file. So I have a lot of aliases that need to be added to existing contacts or have new contacts created for them. Looks like there is an HTTP/XML protocol defined: http://code.google.com/apis/contacts/ Cool, they also have a Java API defined: http://code.google.com/apis/contacts/docs/3.0/developers_guide_java.html Please let me know if you're further along than I am so I don't rebuild this wheel :-). -- Bill Wohler <[email protected]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
