I encountered the same problem with an OEM install on a new (< one week) PC.
Ubuntu 12.04 Had converted Eudora/Mac to Linux/MBOX and TBird couldn't see them
in import. What I found was, TBird reads MBOX directly, and copying into the
right directory solved the problem. The real issue was documentation, since
everything I found said convert and then import.
