I've found descriptions of how to turn on maildir. I've found descriptions of what the limitations and benefits are. I know there is now a built-in utility to convert my mbox files to maildir, but what are the steps I need to go through to get Thunderbird to do the conversion? (Under MacOS, if the steps are OS specific.)
