How to Download your Facebook Friend’s Email Addresses
It is very easy to download your Facebook address book.. and with it, all your friends email addresses.
This can be very useful if you want to import these emails addresses into your email client (Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo, Outlook, etc), or another application.
It is perfectly legal and very quick!
The only prerequisite you need is a Yahoo! Mail account.. if you don’t have one sign up for your free account now.
Login to your Yahoo! Mail account then go to address.yahoo.com and click on the Facebook icon,
Click on <Allow>,
Click on <Done>,
Your Facebook contacts have successfully been imported to your Yahoo! Mail account.
To export your contacts click on the Contacts tab –> Tools –> Export,
Select an export option.. I would recommend CSV as this format can easily be imported into your email address book,
Enter the CAPTCHA code then click on <Export Now>,
Save this file,
Done!
You have just downloaded your Facebook address book.. including all your friend’s email addresses!
This video also outlines these steps.. which you may find useful,

This blog is great!! A wealth of information. Thank You very much.
This is really helpful! is there anyway of getting the email address of people who have 'liked' are a fan of a group?
No it isn't possible (presently) to download the email addresses of your Facebook Fans.
thank u somuch…… i got my contacts…..
This will not work for me. The following pops up: To continue importing your Facebook friends, please keep the dialog window open. If you need to restart or stop the Facebook contact import process, please click on one of the buttons below.
I have tried many times with no success
I'm having trouble with this now also. Is it because my list of friends is too large?
If Yahoo! is unable to import your Facebook Address book, open your Facebook page and choose “Application Settings” under Account.
Next remove the “Yahoo! Contact Importer” application from your Facebook profile and try the steps again.
This message still pops up even when i go back into facebook and remove the yahoo contact importer app.

Yeah, same for me here, I have around 2700 contacts and no matter how many times I remove the “Yahoo! Contact Importer” application from my Facebook profile and try all the steps again, it's always this msg:

I have tried this on Mac on Safari, Firefox, and on Windows on IE, but always same sh..
Practically useless Yahoo application or lame Facebook servers that can't process more then 1K emails?
Why the fu… can't we just download all our friends emails just over facebook – in case we wanted a backup on our disks when someone will be so pissed off, that will blow fb buildings with servers in the air and all the data will be gone
))))
Thanks! Worked perfectly
