No there isn't any way to get emails through API. But instead of that you can use profile username or profile ID to login or for other purposes.

Yes, You need to set scope paramter, eg: Set scope="email", which allows to get permit from user to access his EmailID, because by default you can access only id, name etc. So for this purpose, you need to get access from user.

YES, of course you can. All you want to have an email ID with YAHOO. If you are having already then just sign-in and go to the CONTACTS link on the left pane. Now go to the ACTIONS link and click on IMPORT. This will give you options to import your facebook contacts. Just click on FACEBOOK, A pop-up window will appear. Sign-in to facebook on that window.

It's DONE!!! Enjoy.

It doesn't appear that you can.

You can get a list of friends, but that only gives you ids and names. It appears you have to get users to give you an access token to pull private info, such as email, on a per user basis.

You cannot. You have to ask each user so he permit you to get his own email.

Unless the user's friends have made their email address public (which is highly unlikely) then no, you can't get a user's friend's email address.
