Importing to Thunderbird

When you first run Thunderbird, it lets you import account settings, address books and mail folders from your current e-mail program. The import process works well, but can be exceedingly slow if you have a lot of e-mail in your current program. You may find it better to skip this process and then, once Thunderbird has loaded, select Tools —> Import and then choose only those things you want imported, such as your address book and account settings.
