Is there a way to have time when the email was received in a separate column while exporting it from Thunderbird? The same as for a date, recipient, and sender email. Thank you.

ImportExportTools NG can export a folder or selected set of messages to an index in csv format, and the date and time formats can be customized (see picture). The date and time are in the same column, but it shouldn't be difficult to parse the time part and place it in a separate column. An awkward method would be to export the index with the full date and time, then re-export with just the time, then copy the time column into the first index csv.
