I agree. 3500 friends and Yahoo mail only imported 600 of my contacts!? WHY? Have not been able to find single post on the www that explains this!

You can import your Facebook contacts to Yahoo Messenger 10. Here's what you do. Open up your internet browser and log-in to Facebook. Go into your Yahoo Inobox via your Internet browser by opening up another tab or page. Click on "Contacts" in the left panel. You will see a "Tools" button with a downward pointing arrow. Click on that and go down to "Import". Click on Facebook. Another page will open saying "Do you want to share your contacts with Yahoo!?". Click "Okay". Yahoo will now begin importing your contacts from Facebook. Depending on how many friends you have on Facebook, this may take a few minutes. Yahoo will say "Done" when it completes the import. After it has imported the contacts, go to Yahoo Messenger. Click on "Contacts" and click on "Import Contacts". Make sure "Yahoo! Mail / Address Book" is checked and click "Continue". Yahoo Messenger will now begin the import process. Click "Continue" again. Then you can either invite the people you want to invite to Yahoo Messenger or leave the checks blank and click "Continue". Click close, and you're done. Your Facebook contacts who have Yahoo Messenger are now in your Yahoo Messenger list. It's up to your contacts if they want to accept you as a IM Contact though.

I just tried this and it works like a charm.
How do you guys import emails from FB contacts? It's not allowed currently by the FB API?
Any thoughts/advice?
