Thunderbird (or Mozilla Thunderbird) is an open source email client, which provides news and chat services as its additional features, and is available as a freeware app for multiple OS platforms. This email client has been popular in its time, featuring email management, junk filtering, extension and themes, standards support, multiple file formats support, cross platform support, and more.
Today MS Outlook has almost replaced Thunderbird and people are now looking for a way to migrate Thunderbird to Outlook.

This software SUCKS!
I tried to convert Thunderbird to Outlook and what a brutal process.
The [Find File] process doesn't allow you to even GET to appdata\local\roaming folders where the data files reside. I even ran as admin and it still didn't let me get to the Thunderbird files.
Then is says [Load File] what file???? I tried the .msd and several other extensions as Thunderbird has a LOT of files and this stupid software just keeps saying "Invalid File". The online help is USELESS as it doesn't specify file extensions nothing....I'm uninstalling....I'll find something a LOT more useable.
