Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 94210

While Thunderbird imports mail from Eudora and from Netscape Communicator, it
doesn't import mailboxes from Mac OS X's mail client, "Mail."

So, here's an AppleScript application I've written to do that.
Use at your own risk, no warranty expressed or implied, yadda, yadda, yadda...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:




This script is essentially a "hack" to make up for functionality that should be
easy to add to Thunderbird. Perhaps the logic involved in the AppleScript will
be useful to the Thunderbird developers.

Attachment: This is a "zipped" AppleScript application to import local mailboxes from "Mail.app" into Thunderbird.

Use at your own risk.
May destroy years of work.
No warranty expressed or implied.
It works for me.
&c
