Hi, I am trying to import an .mbox file that I exported from gmail but continuously getting error "import failed unexpectedly, more information may be available in the error console". Can somebody help please? I have tried selecting different options but none of them work.

Thank you heaps.

Help/Troubleshooting Info, Profile Folder, Show in Finder, close TB, copy the .mbox file into Mail/Local Folders, renaming it if necessary. Remove the .mbox extension, restart TB, find the folder under Local Folders in the Folder Pane. Transferring the messages from Local Folders to an IMAP folder is a bit more involved and should only be done with small batches at a time, usually less than a few hundred.
