This will work, but you have to export all messages in one folder.
How can you export all messages in a way that you will keep your folder
structure and all the messages are in those folders?

Yes, its a tedious task. One folder after the other.

 How can you export all messages in a way that you will keep your folder
 structure and all the messages are in those folders?

I don't know (and I don't care :-) ... if you really want to import the
complete TB folder structure into, err, TBird, ask Mozilla Foundation to
write an import wizard. :-)

I would have thought so too but no - it only gives you certain
options to import from and TB isn't one of them, neither is Unix!

Exporting messagebase to Mozilla Thunderbird?

Hello all,

I was messing about with Thunderbird and tried importing a few
messages so I could play around but cannot get them in a format that
Thunderbird can import - anyone any ideas?

Thunderbird appears to only import from Netscape Communicator,

Thanks Alex! As never having used OE - didn't know it used EML...

I'll try that.

Ahem, to be precise, export to .EML (each message will be a separate file),
then drag  drop the .EML files into the messagelist of OE.

Yes, that's right. Just export a UNIX Mailbox and move this file into your 
profile folder of Thunderbird just beside all other folders.
The profile folder normaly is located in %appdata%.

Upon restarting Thunderbird, you'll see the mailbox and can move your mails 
where you want to have them. :)

TB Thunderbird appears to only import from Netscape Communicator,
TB Eudora, Outllok or Outlook Express

Thunderbird keeps email in so called UNIX mailbox format. For each folder
Thunderbird has that mailbox, folder name in Thunderbird is the same as
filename of that mailbox on your HDD

Therefore you should export messages from The Bat! to UNIX mailbox and then
simply copy created file into Thunderbird mail directory.

For example:
1) Create in Thunderbird folder called import_from_the_bat, close
Thunderbird.
2) in The Bat! select messages you want to export and then Tools/Export
messages to/UNIX mailbox, save mailbox as import_from_the_bat
3) Locate Thunderbird mailbox file import_from_the_bat. It should be in one
of Application Data\Thunderbird subdirectories and copy over file created by
The Bat!

That's it :)
