Array
(
 [0] => SimpleXMLElement Object
    (
        [@attributes] => Array
            (
                [rel] => http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#other
                [address] => [e-mail]
                [primary] => true
            )

    )

[1] => SimpleXMLElement Object
    (
        [@attributes] => Array
            (
                [rel] => http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#other

see : http://www.php.net/manual/en/simplexmlelement.attributes.php

Return Values

Returns a SimpleXMLElement object that can be iterated over to loop through the attributes on the tag.

the solution is to cast the value into string,
for example :

$email[$count++]=(string)$title->attributes()->address;

Or iterate the return value will work as well

eg:

foreach($title->attributes() as $key => $val)
{
  if ($key == 'address') $email[$count++] = $val;
}
