To transfer a contact list from jimdo I followed prompts to export to Thunderbird. It offered me creation of a csv file which I accepted. I opened it in Office 2010 Excel. It appeared normal. When I attempted to import this file into Thunderbird, it imported ony 2 addresses. I cannot see anything special about the corresponding rows in the csv file. Any suggestions?

Are there any errant separators in the data you're dumping to the CSV file?

For instance if the CSV is comma separated & you have a home address (or mis-typed email address) with a comma in it then you'll break the import.
