I am trying to migrate from Outlook Express on an old XP computer I want to phase out to a new Windows 8.1 computer. I have already installed Thunderbird on the new computer and do have an older version of Thunderbird available on the old one. What would be the best way to accomplish this?

How does this work if Outlook Express is on a different computer? Am I going to need to move some files by memory stick or something? If so, which files?

Thanks

it does not work if your on a different computer.

so change on your old device and move the profile https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb#w_backing-up-a-profile

Note the data is in a different place on each machine.

In both instances, start Thunderbird go to the Help > troubleshooting information and click the show folder button to get the correct location. Then close Thunderbird.

Note: the instructions talk of right clicking xxxxxxxx.default and copying. Open the folder and select all and then copy. reverse the arrangement on the new computer. opening xxxxxxxx.default (note the XXXXXX will be different on your new machine) and pasting everything in.

This will replace whatever is on your new computer with that from the old, in the folder the new copy of Thunderbird uses. Starting Thunderbird should be all that is required to get going.
