Jun 18, 2020 Mozilla Thunderbird is an open-source email client which stores emails and other mailbox items in MBOX files. However, Microsoft Outlook doesn't support the MBOX file format. Thus, if you want to export emails from Thunderbird to Outlook, you must convert the MBOX files to PST file format.

Aid4Mail will automatically set the appropriate target folder if Outlook is installed on your computer. Choose the name for your PST file; the default Outlook profile stores email in the Outlook.pst file. If you are using Outlook 2010, Outlook.pst may be located in the 'DocumentsOutlook Files' folder instead of under AppData.
Enter a name in the 'Base folder' field if you prefer to separate your imported mail from existing Outlook messages. For example 'Thunderbird Mail' (without the quotes).
Step 5: Set the export options
Make sure the 'Restore source mail folder structure' box is ticked. Also tick the 'Append messages to target mailbox file' box if you want to add your mail to an existing PST file.
Step 6: Export your email from Thunderbird to Outlook
This is the last screen in Aid4Mail. First, if Thunderbird is open, close it. Then in Aid4Mail, click the Start button to begin the mail export task. Aid4Mail will display progress information as it processes your source mail. On finishing the conversion, Aid4Mail will indicate how many messages it has successfully processed.

Step 7: Find your mail in Outlook
Open Microsoft Outlook. Often the Outlook.pst file will be open by default. If not, or if you chose to convert to a different PST file, then you can open the file in Outlook through File > Open > Outlook Data File.
Browse the PST file's folder structure until you find your converted mailboxes. If necessary, you can then drag-and-drop folders or individual messages to other locations.
