Import sqlite

How can I import a sqlite file with Thunderbird?

This file contains email contacts, but it has a new catalog name, that’s why Thunderbird calls it abook-1.sqlite

I tried installing Thunderbird in a new computer and paste the files below, but it doesn’t recognize: abook-1.sqlite-wal; abook-1.sqlite; abook-1.sqlite-shm

Thanks!!

Rename the files removing the "-1". Thunderbird will then recognize.
