I have retreved the Thunderbird folder from a crashed WindowsXP and now have it on a Fedora 18 /home/user install.
The Fedora install already has Thunderbird installed and New Emails are already in Thunderbird, I want import the Emails from the WindowsXP Thunderbird in with the existing emails already in Fedora Thunderbird.
How do I do that ??
There's a profile folder for thunderbird. I believe all you need to do is copy it to the .thunderbird folder in your home directory. If you're using something like nautilus or nemo, you'll need to checkmark "show hidden files"in the "view" section. If .thunderbird isn't showing up then run it at least once and then copy over the profile directory, which is usually something.default.
Keep in mind that I already have a existing profile and emails on my Fedora Install, doing what you suggest would cause problems with the existing emails I already have
