Setting up Thunderbird on a network and moving data

I have been using Thunderbird on two computers on a network, each with their own profile. They both retrieve emails from the same server and email address, using POP. On the network there is a shared folder, accessible from both computers. Is it possible to move data from both profiles onto a new profile on a shared folder without losing the data? I would like the sent folders to be effectively merged, for example. I am using Windows 7.

Use IMAP instead of POP.
