I need to import from thunderbird to outlook 2003.

The help I find so far is not helpful, since it implies I need to either
install a new version of netscape and import from tbird to netscape first, or
import to outlook express first and then into outlook. I do not have outlook
express.

Why should I need to install a thrid program to import to as an intermediary
step?

Outlook does not find the email foders located in C:\Documents and
Settings\userid\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\something.default\Mail
, which is where tbird stores them.

What's up with that?
