How Do I Transfer My Windows Live Mail Messages to Thunderbird?
To move your Windows Live Mail messages to Thunderbird, you first need to convert the .eml files (used by WLM) into the MBOX format, which is Thunderbird-friendly.
Here’s how:
Use Advik Windows Live Mail Converter to convert your email folder into a single MBOX file.
After conversion, open Thunderbird.
Use the ImportExportTools NG add-on in Thunderbird to import the MBOX file.
This approach is clean and doesn’t mess up your folder structure. It works especially well for users with large mailboxes and attachments.
