Thunderbird email folders

I have several pst files in Outlook. I wish to import them separately to Thunderbird and keep their contents separate. I know Thunderbird only uses one folder, and then has subfolders. Is there a way to bring in first the main pst contents and put all that in a subfolder, then switch in Outlook to a different pst file, and then import that and put it in a subfolder. And so on, so that I can keep the different sets of emails separate? In Outlook I can put all my household stuff in one pst, all my holiday stuff in another etc etc. I have yet to install Thunderbird and am not quite sure how you can file emails in different categories anyway so I want to sort this out before I go ahead. (I can keep the old Outlook installed and get at the contents that way but it is not really the most convenient.) Thanks in advance for any answers.

You'll have to convert the pst files to mbox files. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1057479
