You can drag and drop individual or selections of addressbook entries
into groups within an addressbook, or to a new addressbook.  In your
situation, I might be tempted to create a new addressbook for each
group (which you can then associate with individual TB Accounts), and
then drag and drop the entries from your personal addressbook into the
one you have created.  I started off with one addressbook, but I have
since created 4 separate addressbooks to keep work contacts separate
from personal ones.  Some of the individual addressbooks have groups
within them.  It might be simplest to start import process again, and
import the Eudora groups one at a time, and immediately drag the
imported addresses from the personal addressbook into a new
addressbook.

The selection of multiple entries in the addressbook for drag and drop
does not work very well, by the way!  You have to select all the
entries (using [ctrl]+[click] or [shift]+[click], but in order to
drag the group, you have to start dragging from the last entry you
clicked on (the currently selected one). If you click on one of the
other highlighted entries, the selection is lost, and you drag just
that entry.
