I can't find any way to import emails from windows live mail, which will has stopped working. ImportExportTools NG is not compatible with my version (91.1.1 (64bit)) and I cant find any other import add-on. Clicking on Local Folders in thunderbird and selecting "Import from another program" has no option for windows live mail. Only Outlook Seamonkey Becky. I can access the folder in appdata with all the .eml files, but drag drop doesn't work either. Please help. I need to recover important messages. Windows live mail has stopped working, and I have tried everything to fix it. What's annoying is that I successfully imported all email into thunderbird on another user on the same pc a while ago! Windows 7

Create a subfolder of Local Folders, then drag the eml files from Explorer and drop them onto the subfolder.

There is a beta version of IET NG for TB 91:

Download v. 10.1.0-b8.zip and drop it onto the Add-ons Manager to install.
