10.4: Export Mail messages to Thunderbird, revisited

Actually Mail went from the single file .mbox format to the multiple file .message format (which is also an open format). The purpose of this was for spotlight searches.

But as has been pointed out, Mail will still export to an .mbox format.

If you dig around the mail folders, you can see the mbox files.

Call me an idiot, but I can't seem to make this work. How do you import the foldername.mbox into thunderbird?
