It is necessary to make a migration copy of all our email addresses for transfer to windows express. Our office overseas can not use Thunderbird & needs all our email addresses stored in Thunderbird copied for migration into their windows express program. How can this be achieved.?

I think we may also need to transfer email copies too, can this be done.? If so, how.?

Regards Kym

Ok I have googled, I have found a windows cleaning company in Switzerland http://www.windowsexpress.org/About-Us.htmland something called Parallels Desktop for Mac with instructions for installing windows on a mac.

So I think we need to go back to the beginning with "What is Windows express?"

Email programs as a general rule do not "export" their contents into another mail clients formats. The normal procedure is to "import" the foreign format so there are some obvious questions

What formats can this mail software import? Are your existing mail accounts IMAP or pop?

you can export email addresses from Thunderbird as CSV which almost all programs can read (including spreadsheets) From the address book select the Tools menu (Alt+ T) and select the export option
