Hello,

I’m experimenting with the Gmailer gem.

I’d like to extend it to be able to pull down Contact _groups_.  
Currently,  
it does “frequently mailed” and “all”.

Does anyone know where to locate such API info?

Thanks,  
Dave

Dave,

I assume that you’ve checked here:

I didn’t see a specific GMail API

I probably mailed that last comment too soon.

Do you mean about the gmailer gem?

Currently, Gmailer supports “frequently mailed” and “all”.  
You can get contact list like this:

GMailer.connect(name, pwd) do |g|  
puts “Your frequently used addresses:”  
g.fetch(:contact=\>“freq”).each do |item|  
puts “Name: #{item.name} Email: #{item.email}”  
end

```
 puts "Your all addresses:"
 g.fetch(:contact=>"all").each do |item|
   puts "Name: #{item.name} Email: #{item.email}"
 end

```

end

The next version will support user defined contact groups.
