When I import an mbox file into Thunderbird I only see 1,037 email entries when there should be over 11,000.

From Backupify, I export a users mail-file. I receive a zip of the file. It expands too a filder where there are 119 mbox files (allmail.mbox, sent.mbox and "lots of labels".mbox

I create in Thunderbird a local folder with the termnated user's name. When I use the importexporttool it creates subfolders but the folders don't contain all the mail it should. The Allmail folder contains 1037 entries, but it should contain over 11,000. The mailbox in Google is almost 5 gig in size.

Solution choisie

Thunderbird's naming convention with its mailstore is to have no extension.

Since yours are named *.mbox we can surmise that they did not originate in Thunderbird.

And apart from the difference in name, Thunderbird uses a particular variant of mbox file; the so-called mboxrd.

Do you know what type yours are?

However, the author of this article seems to think it should work:

He just copies the files in directly…
