Details

I tried to import my Eudora e-mail with thousands of messages into Thunderbird.
 While importing, McAfee came across a virus and deleted the mailbox that the
imported messages were landing in.  This resulted in thousands of popups right
after another complaining that the mailbox it was trying to import into was no
longer there.  There was no recourse besides hitting OK thousands of times, or
killing Thunderbird.  Thus, I cannot import my old mail.  McAfee did not find
any viruses in the Eudora version of the mailbox, only the Mozilla version while
importing.
