Migrating from Outlook for Mac to Thunderbird

Dear all, I am currently running Microsoft Outlook 2021 for Mac on my MacBook Pro. I like to switch to Thunderbird. I am sure I know how to set up the various e-mail accounts in Thunderbird.

For me, it is important to have the current data (emails, folder with e-mails, contact data, calendar entry) transferred to Thunderbird so that i do not have to switch between Outlook and Thunderbird.

Question: How can i migrate all my e-mails, folders, calendar entries and contacts from Microsoft Outlook 2021 for Mac to Thunderbird?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards Reinhard Benditte

Hello,

maybe reading this SUMO article can provide you help for migrating from Outlook to Thunderbird on a Mac: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-import#thunderbird:mac:tb159 I did this once in 2012 for a friend who wanted to switch from Outlook on Windows to Thunderbird and then from Windows to macOS. She still uses the same migrated profile. At that time the import from Outlook worked flawlessly but I don't know whether it would be the same today.
