summary says it all :) vcard is a format supported by well-known email clients and services (yahoo & evolution as examples). supporting it will allow more people to easily switch to thunderbird


below is an example

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have addresses on evolution
2. export them (only gui way is vcard)
3. tools > import in thunderbird

Actual Results:  
no way to import from evolution using GUI only: user decides not to migrate

Expected Results:  
thunderbird imports vcard: user switches to thunderbird
