Cannot import all mail folders

Trying to input all my email/ folders from MS Outlook 2011 (Mac) to Thunderbird. Have used Emailchemy to export the data from Outlook to a mbox format. When I used Tool > import, it only gives me Apple Mail as an option. Tried it, nothing to import. There was no other options, no way to select a different folder.

Then added the ImportExportTool add-on. That helped somewhat. It would allow me to select all files with .mbox but not any of the folders. I have many folders. Some folders have multiple layers of folders.

I am using a MacBook Pro, running High Sierra (Mac OS 10.13.2), I have downloaded the most recent version on Thunderbird (52.5.2).

Any suggestions/ ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. Neither solution worked. TB 58 beta 2 had the exact import issues as before. ImportExportTools did not work at all.

TB 17 gave me one other import option (Eudora) but otherwise no difference. ImportExportTools was not available.

Other thoughts? Should I export to a different format?

Thanks.
