How to import emails and contacts from windows mail to thunderbird 8

Hello

I have Windows 8 and have been using the Windows 8 mail application. However, it is very basic, so I'm willing to switch to Thunderbird. However, I can't find a way to import my mail, folders and contacts to Thunderbird in Windows 8 Mail.

There seems to be no option to export on Windows 8 Mail. Thunderbird has an import option, but is not able to locate the files of Windows 8 e-mail.

It doesn't seem to be the answer to this question in the forums. Can anyone help?

Thank you

Mark

App to win 8 Mail is usually associated with ahotmail/live/outlook.com account, so to access it with TB, configure an IMAP account:

To import the contacts, open the web page account, export contacts to a csv file and follow the instructions here:

Automatically from hotmail/outlook represents messages copy sent to the folder "sent", uncheck "Place" a copy in. under the tools/account settings /hotmailaccount/Copies & records.
