Import Contacts Into YouMail - FINALLY!!!!!
Let glorious rays of sunshine beam down from the heavens and all earthly creatures find a smile on their faces, YouMail now imports contacts!!! I’ve had a few words to say on this topic in the past when when I claimed “YouMail Hates Its Customers“. One of the founders of YouMail gave me a call to let me know a beta for importing contacts was right around the corner. Well, it’s here! It was a bit disappointing as far as betas go, with nary an issue to troubleshoot nor bug to file, my contacts were added seamlessly.
The importer will grab online contact info from Gmail and Yahoo, or offline contacts from
Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Palm Desktop, LinkedIn, Plaxo, or anybody else than can export into the CSV format of one of those. Also note that YouMail can pull contacts from Plaxo which syncs with just about EVERYBODY, making the list of sources rather complete.
Congrats to the YouMail team for making this happen, I’m really looking forward to tighter integration of my communication habits with YouMail now that this critical feature has been released. Thanks!
