Hello,

Referring to your article https://mzl.la/3TS8WcA (Import settings and data into Thunderbird for Android) . The first step is : Export Thunderbird Desktop settings

  Click ≡ > Tools > Export for Mobile. 

However, I am running version 128.3.3esr (64 bits) "Nebula" and the menu "Export for Mobile" isn't available under "Tools" as mentioned in the article.

Please advise

Regards

Hello David,

I checked the blog, but no thread or discussion regarding the topic of generating a QR code on Desktop version to scan and import accounts on the newly release Mobile / Android version of Thunderbird.

This is still new, so one possibility is to test it yourself and contribute your findings to that blog.
