Hi Jim,

Although I have not used Mozilla Thunderbird, it should be possible to
export the addresses as a *.csv file, then use this file when importing
addresses into OE or the Windows Address Book. If the process fails when
importing examine the *.csv file by opening it in Notepad. Compare the
format to an export of (other address book) or comma-separated values file
from OE's File menu (or from the Windows Address Book WAB). Make any
necessary changes and try importing again if the first attempt wasn't
successful.

Tip found on the Web

A small example of a *.csv file used with OE can be found he
