Windows has gotten better in this regard, that is true.
But it's still bizarre that, with Thunderbird, you can
export/import the address book, but not the mail database.
A welcome improvement would be to have a button to
export/import the whole farkin' thing.
Instead, when I installed TB on my laptop, I had to open the
account settings on my desktop, and screen by screen, manually
copy the data into my laptop TB install. A long and tedious and
error-prone process, as there are endless screens and config
settings.
Portable software is your friend.
