How to read Archive.msf and .sbd files stored on backup media without restoring to current profile?
I have stored extensive Archived e-mail files on back-up media in order to release hard disk memory. How can I read selected Archive.sbd and Archive.msf files without restoring them to the current profile? Can I create a new profile and restore them there temporarily?

Tbirds mail-container has a pair of files
(1) container-name (with no extension) Here are all emails one after the other. (2) container-name.msf a type of index, if deleted itwill be restored
If there is sub-containers, there is also a container-name.sbd which is a directory (map) Within this directory there are new pairs or even directories.
The files without an extension is the mbox-files. As they exists even when there is just a .sbd directory and no emails you have only to point at this (empty) mbox file to load the entire (folder- map-) directory- tree using the ImportExportTools-addon.

With a help from an add-on ImportExportTools can you import a singel mbox-file or a mbox-archive You set up a temp local folder in Tbird and import whaat you want into this. When you are finished just delete and compact

What's an mbox? The Import tool under Tools doesn't list an mbox. Does this mbox show up in the existing profile? If not, how do you read the contents?
You need the add-on that Gnospen mentioned.

To which of the AddOns listed under Import/Export are you referring? I couldn't find one that would do what you suggest.
