email address ripping

hello, is there a way to build my address book automatically? problem is that i had problems with a different email program and lost all of my contacts, thus i could not import them into thunderbird. (btw: sooo glad tbird was recently updated)

if i could paint a mental picture for you, is there like a add-on that can go thru all the emails in the inbox and say build a table, like a spreadsheet, whereas the email address's are in a single column. then from there i can import then into the tbird address book or at least i can leave them in spreadsheet format and use them as needed?

incidentally, i use the term "ripping" because i think this is what is referred to when people and companies rip data from the yellow pages and build databases with, ie yellow page ripping.

thanks.

Clearly, you are a genius !

Mozilla should put links to sites like yours on its add-on pages because it would of saved me much time from spinning my wheels on its fancy add in site.

Thank you !

ps: it might be a good idea to insert into the description of the add-on with "right click on the inbox to initialize my crawler add-in"
