How to Import MBOX to Thunderbird?
I have several MBOX files with me and I want to import MBOX files into the Thunderbird email client. I've come across different methods, including manual techniques and third-party tools, but I'm unsure which approach is the most efficient, especially when dealing with multiple or large-sized MBOX files. Some methods also seem complicated for users who are not very technical.
Suggest me any reliable tool for this!

- install the addon, importexporttools NG
- highlight Local Folders
- rightclick and select importexport option to import mbox file
- locate and select an mbox file and click ok (IGNORE any files ending in .msf)
another way if familiar with File Explorer
- exit thunderbird
- copy the mbox files to the mail\Local Folders folder
- restart thunderbird
When you have only one or two MBOX files, importing them manually using an importexporttools ng add-on in Thunderbird is simple. This works great if you have a small number of messages, but it becomes difficult when large mailboxes come into play.
To have an easy experience, you can use SysTools Thunderbird Import Wizard. It lets you import single or multiple MBOX files directly into Thunderbird in just a few clicks. The tool maintains your emails along with attachments, folder structure and metadata. It looks exactly like the previous. If you want a speedy import of your MBOX files and do not wish to perform manual steps, this is a great option.
