I have Outlook 2007 on a Windows 10 PC. I want to import all my emails and folders that contain emails, in the same order to my Thunderbird 102. I've already purchased the SysTools PST Convertor program and entered in a fresh PST file that included all my email folders, emails within, contacts, calendars, etc. I then loaded that PST file to the SysTools PST Convertor and created MBOX files (yes, plural as it created a different MBOX file for each folder I had).

Now I don't know how to import that to Thunderbird as each time I use the import feature and choose "Outlook", it replies with "PROFILE NOT FOUND".

I have no idea how to proceed since I tried to enter these MBOX files (as created by the convertor) into the Local Folders of my Thunderbird profile but just got the folders. Nothing was inside the folders after I restarted Thunderbird. Any suggestions here?? Can't find anything online about this.

Since you have already converted to mbox, you might try the addon, importexporttools, and use that to import each mbox file.
