I have .eml from Windows Live Mail in a folder on my computer. How do I import them into TB 24.4.0?

All my email (and Storage Folders) from Windows Live Mail 2012 were exported in Windows Live Mail format (.eml) into a single empty folder on my computer. I want to import the entire folder into Thunderbird 24.4.

How do I do this?

if there is no structure of folders and sub folders, you can just drag the eml files and drop them in a folder in Thunderbird.

If there is, or you would feel more comfortable with a dialog, the import export tools will do the job for you. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
