Public bug reported:

I want to migrate to migrate from Evolution to Thunderbird, the new standard 
mail-application in Ubuntu. I installed the addon ImportExportTools (2.7.0.3) 
and have chosen the Inbox mbox in 
/home/user/.local/share/evolution/mail/local_mbox and imported the mails 
(already not really user friendly!) 
But in fact I've lost a lot of my Emails. In fact I've got all my Mails up to 
October 2011 (I think I've updated there to Oneiric Ocelot) but mails I 
received and send afterwards were not imported. 
I then opened Evolution again and my mail was still there. I tried to save my 
Inbox as an mbox-file but it seems to produce enormous files (in my sent-folder 
there are 1500 mails and my free available disk storage of 170 GB wasn't 
sufficient to store and produce this mbox). What can I do? How can I import my 
mails?

>From my point of view there should be, after a decided change of a core
application, a migration tool which makes it easy to continue to work
with the hole system.
