We are working on a simple CRM solution (Php+Mysql).Planning to make it GPL in a month.

My question:

1. Is it possible to push a contact from gmail to the CRM MySql Database?

Why do i need this, every time I get a lead, i store the email in gmail contact group. It would be nice to create a CRM entry from gmail. I can then login to my crm and enter details about the customer.

2. From the CRM solution, is it possible to mail the contacts using gmail?

It would be nice to send an email using gmail, from my CRM list of contacts, and all responses, i can archive the responses in gmail , with a label.

I need your expert opinion, and I would like to know if anyone has experience doing this.

Thanks

Prakash

Gmail API for PHP should address both of your questions.

Thanks a lot, I have asked in their forum.

Are you familiar with the Gmail API implementation?

I think you can do what you want just by reading the docs.

No, but I am familiar with Google and it was like the 4th hit.
