<p>If you're a new Mozilla Thunderbird user, you almost certainly have old e-mail stored in the archives of another e-mail client.  If you use e-mail frequently, you might also have an address book full of contacts and settings fully tweaked to your liking.  Thankfully Thunderbird makes transferring your e-mail, settings, and address books a painless process in nearly all circumstances.  With its support for migrating e-mail, settings, and your address book from Eudora, Outlook, Outlook Express, and Netscape Communicator 4.x (not to mention its support for e-mail stored in Thunderbird's own format, used by Netscape 6/7, KMail, Evolution, and many other clients), getting your e-mail out of your old program and into Thunderbird is a simple process. </p>
