I have 3 exported email files that are in .txt format. I am having trouble trying to import them to view their contents.

I put all three into the same folder and tried setting the local folder to it with no luck. Also tried putting them in 3 different sub folders to get better organization of the emails should they become available and no luck.

Thunderbird sees the folders and creates them within the program but does not display any email messages.

What happens when you open a .txt file with a text editor?
