I am loading .mbx file to my C:\Users\Marylfletcher\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\etmnp0du.default\Mail\Local Folders directory. In some cases I am not able to see the messags. I need help in troubleshooting. As this is a work stoppage from myself and my team.

Thank you in advance.

MBX is an email file format created by Microsoft Outlook Express. Thunderbird uses mbox files (w/o a file extension) for mail storage. What are you trying to achieve in the first place?

Thank You, i was able to resolve my issue. I had to rename the file, as it had a special character in it.

Thanks.
