SO you want users to be able to:

send their gmail/yahoo contacts a mail from inside your site?

I think I recently saw Google tell FaceBook to face off and denied them access. This could be a security issue for you or a vulnerability for the user unless you get it right. I *think* OAuth will allow you to do this.
