Hello,

If I have email address of a user, is there any way to find the profile of the user? I know it can be done using the uid and name of the user (GetInfo() or fql.query).

The specific problem I am trying to address is when I search for a user using the name field, I end up getting multiple results (people with the same name). I have the email address of the user I want to search, so if I can search using email address, I will be able to reach to the specific user.

Alternately, if there's a way to find uid for a given email address, I can get the user I am looking for.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!
