How do I get my (30+) OSX archived Apple Mailboxes to appear on my iPhone? I am happy to use any combination of Thunderbird and Apples so that I can sort and archive incoming emails into existing folder (names), and access old emails (1,000s of them) that are only on my iMac now.

First off Thunderbird does not have a version for iPhone so you need to ask the Apple genius how to work your phone. Secondly most mobile devices will not have enough storage for thousands of messages. Your best solution is to setup IMAP email accounts. IMAP was developed just for this use. The messages are stored on the email providers server and you access and manage them from your computer and mobile devices.

So you recommend I re-upload 1,000s of emails to IMAP servers?

No. What I want is a cloud solution, but I guess what you mean is that Thunderbird cannot do this.

Thanks anyway.

Thunderbird is software on YOUR computer. It has no cloud. Besides if the messages are all on your computer you would have to upload them to a "cloud" somewhere to share them. Like a IMAP server.
