- Make sure that you do not have any running instances of thunderbird.

- Copy your ~/.thunderbird from the older machine to the new machine

- Run thunderbird on the new machine - the first time it runs, it will 
automatically start with all your previous settings intact.

- If it does not work, post back your error messages

As usual, if this method burns down your house, I will not be 
responsible :-)

On another note, please do not hijack threads. Always start a new thread 
instead of taking an already ongoing one, changing the subject line and 
posting it again. The subject line is only  loosely related to the 
threading.  Every mail message has a message-id.    When you "reply" or 
"followup" to a message, you client is supposed to  put a References 
header with the message-id of the message you are  replying to.

If you use an existing thread, the result is that your question is 
buried below unrelated questions when looking at the mailing list in a 
threaded way. This is known as `Hijacking threads'. It causes 
information to be lost and you'll be less likely to get an answer.
