How do I import 5000+ emails from old account into a specific folder in current version
Had to upgrade pc O/S.
Saved all old emails to a memory stick under a specific folder. can open each one and save to specific thunderbird folder, but over 5000 times.
How do I import all emails in the folder into a specific thunderbird folder called OLD MAIL.

Is your old mail in mboxes or separate .eml-files? What did you use to save them? (I want to understand how they are stored in what kind of structure and type of files.)

They are all held as seperate *eml i.e.
39C653F6-00000332.EML
Then use ImportExportTools to import all .eml in a folder Make that folder in TB first Link to ImportExportTools
