There's a software call Address magic plus. Its not free but it can convert messages, address book into other format. What I will do is to use that software, select the folder and extract all of them into eml format. Eml its basically, text unless you have Unicode character on those email.
But its not free but I have been or have that software for quite a few years. -------------------- regards Thomas N.

Roberts via Talk Sent: Tuesday, 14 March 2017 9:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: A question for advanced users of Thunderbird I have asked this elsewhere, but the responses I have thus far received haven't solved the problem. One of my Thunderbird folders contains more than a hundred saved messages. I am attempting to locate a means of exporting the messages in this folder and then saving each to a text file. I know I can do this one at a time, but I need an automated means if possible. First of all, is there an export facility in Thunderbird? I do not wish to export all messages, just those in one specific folder. Thanks for ideas.
