I attempted to use the method on the help database for importing passwords for RSS feeds into thunderbird, however, the cookies file for FF3 is empty (minus a bit about it being a generated file and not to edit it, instead, use the cookie manager). apparently cookies are stored in a seperate file, cookies.sqlite, which thunderbird does not read. I would like to have a way to import my cookies into Thunderbird from Firefox 3 so that I can read full RSS feeds rather than partial ones (more specifically RSS feeds from forums which have locked threads/forums). It would be excellent to have the ability to 'import all from domain' or to be able to select the cookies individually.
