Import MBOX

Import MBOX to Thunderbird Multiple Account Types

Thunderbird has 2 types of mailbox accounts that can be configured and 1 native folder:

  • IMAP Account
  • POP Account
  • Local Folders (native)

Thunderbird Import wizard allows you to directly add MBOX file to Thunderbird POP accounts and Local Folders. IMAP has restrictions that prevent direct import. So, to import MBOX files into IMAP accounts, you need to import the MBOX file in Local Folders, then simply drag and drop the imported mailbox to the configured IMAP account. That's it!

MBOX Email Clients

Support All Thunderbird supported formats

There are several different versions of the MBOX format, and some email clients may use slightly different variations. The software has the capability to process MBOX files of all kinds. Other than MBOX, the tool can also import other formats supported by Thunderbird. Currently the tool supports following file formats:

  • MBOX files (with .mbox extension)
  • Thunderbird native MBOX file (no extension)
  • MBX files (Eudora & Pocomail)
  • MBS files (Opera Mail)
  • EML & EMLX files
  • Maildir files

The origin of these file does not hinder the processing and the overall Thunderbird import process.
