I'm updating from Eudora 7.1 to Thunderbird because my net provider is changing port numbers and Eudora does not appear to have provision to define specific numbers. My current Eudora has several thousand stored messages in many folders, I want to propagate these messages to Thunderbird.

I've never tried it myself, but it sounds from this article as though it should be fairly automatic: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Importing_from_Eudora_%28Thunderbird%29

I think it should be possible to try the import and compare the two side-by-side to see how well it worked.

Let us know how you make out.
