<item><p>Click <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>Import</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>In the <gui>Importer Type</gui> tab, click <gui>Import a single file</gui>.</p></item>
<item><p>Go to the folder in which <app>Thunderbird</app> stores its data. You will have to make sure to <link xref="help:gnome-help/files-hidden#show-hidden" href="https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/files-hidden#show-hidden">show hidden files</link> in the file selector dialog.</p></item>

<item><p>If you would like to import <app>Thunderbird</app> mail, go to <file>Mail/Local Folders</file> (for local mail accounts) or <file>ImapMail/servername</file> (for remote mail accounts). <file>servername</file> will be the address of your remote mail server. Files without a file ending include your messages (not the <file>.msf</file> files).</p></item>
<item><p>If you would like to import <app>Thunderbird/Lightning</app> calendar data, you may be able to export your <app>Thunderbird</app> events as an <file>.ical</file>/<file>.ics</file> file first, and import these files into <app>Evolution</app>. This is required as <app>Thunderbird</app> stores its calendar data in a non-standard database format.</p></item>
</list>
<p>The file type will be automatically determined.</p></item>
<item><p>Choose the destination (e.g. the folder or calendar in <app>Evolution</app>) for the imported data.</p></item>
<item><p>Repeat the import steps until you have imported all your data.</p></item>
