Not really, FireFox has a tool for importing/exporting bookmarks and other things. I just thought that T-Bird would as well.
It did it automatically. All the stuff is there from my 2.X version of T-Bird - all the mail, contacts, etc.
If you use a less sophisticated operating system, you'll probably have to use other tools.
Not a very veiled shot at MS, is it? ;^)
i thought I was being subtle. :-)
