Thunderbird: Import address book – this is how to do it

by Flo

If you have just switched to Thunderbird, you can import your address book directly. We show you how to transfer the contacts from your old email account to Thunderbird.

Import address book to Thunderbird

To import an address book, proceed as follows:

– Click on “Tools” in the menu bar at the top and select the “Import” category there

– Activate the option “Address books” and click on the button “Next” at the bottom.

– Now select an existing mail programme or decide on the format in which your already exported address book exists.

– Once you have selected the address book from the software or file, it will automatically be imported into Thunderbird.

– Note that depending on the source file, some entries may not be transferred correctly in exceptional cases. Therefore, be sure to keep the file so that you can still access it later.
