Описание: Looking for ways to move your Mozilla Thunderbird emails from one profile to another or to a new computer? In this tutorial, we’ll walk you through three proven methods to safely transfer emails in Thunderbird — whether between different profiles on the same PC or from an old computer to a new one.

This video covers:
🔹 How to move Thunderbird emails from one profile to another
🔹 How to migrate Thunderbird emails from old to new computer
🔹 How to export/import Thunderbird emails using ImportExportNG add-on
==========================================================
🔄 Method 1: Move Emails Between Thunderbird Profiles (Same Computer)
This method allows you to directly move emails from one Thunderbird profile to another:

Open Thunderbird and select emails from your source profile
Right-click on selected emails and choose "Move To"
Select the destination folder under the target profile
Emails will be successfully transferred to the selected profile

⚠️ Make sure both profiles are configured within the same Thunderbird interface.
===========================================================
💻 Method 2: Manually Transfer Thunderbird Data to New Computer
This is useful when you're setting up Thunderbird on a new machine:

1. On your old computer, navigate to:
C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles
2. Copy the entire profile folder (usually ending with .default-release)
3. On the new computer, install Thunderbird
4. Replace the new profile folder with the copied one at the same location
5. Launch Thunderbird and your emails will be restored

📁 This method transfers everything — emails, settings, add-ons, and account configuration.
============================================================
📤 Method 3: Use ImportExportNG Add-on to Export/Import Thunderbird Emails
If you want more control and portability, use the ImportExportNG extension:

On Old Computer:

1. Install ImportExportNG from Thunderbird Add-ons
2. Select a folder or emails you want to export
3. Right-click → ImportExportNG → Export folder/email as MBOX
4. Save the .mbox file to a USB or external drive

On New Computer:

1. Install Thunderbird and the ImportExportNG add-on
2. Use ImportExportNG → Import MBOX file
3. Your emails will be added into Thunderbird

🛠️ This method is perfect for selective migration and backup.
