Where is import mbox option? #472

There isn't any option for importing mbox files with Thunderbird 115.3.2. Also, when adding to Thunderbird, it puts it into Tools twice. Screenshot 2023-10-17 at 11 13 52 AM Screenshot 2023-10-17 at 11 13 41 AM

@hortonj Thanks for the post. You are presumably on Mac OS. There is a Thunderbird menu api error that causes the duplicate entries. I am trying to get some focus on this. Can you id your exact OS?

Importing mbox is done by right clicking on a folder within Local Folders, not the account. @cleidigh

hortonj commented 10 months ago

My exact OS is Sonoma/14.0.

@hortonj Thanks. Did you get the import mbox files menu? Also the button has the same menu as Tools. @cleidigh

Hello everybody, I have a similar problem, with no option to import MBOX. In other words, the import tab doesn't even appear. Windows 11 Home, version 22H2, 64 bits. Thunderbird 115.3.3 (64-bit) ImportExportTools NG v14.0.0

@TiagoAco Create a folder under local folders and then right click to import there. Right now I don't have importing at the account level. @cleidigh

@TiagoAco Excellent! Good for Josephs %-) Thanks for the report! @cleidigh

@cleidigh

It is worth my sincere thanks for dedicating time and energy to creating useful things, and above all for your willingness to help quickly. Grateful.

...and yes, Josephs was in trouble :)

@TiagoAco This release has been a huge effort and the new menu system was just one big part. There are some differences and bugs I am working on for a maintenance release. If you want the latest beta or just want to track issues, you can download and look here : (current is b2)

Most importantly, it's support and kind words from users like yourself that keep me going. So I thank you 👍 @cleidigh

@hortonj Are all set? @cleidigh

cleidigh commented 10 months ago

@TiagoAco Fyi I actually now enable direct import at the account (Local Folders) level. See beta 4:
