As long as you can get the address book into txt or .csv format, it 
should import via:
  Tools
     Import
        Address books

Mailboxes.... hmm..... not sure.  Incidentally, are you sure Thunderbird 
is the best option?  I'm using both Thunderbird and Mozilla's mail 
program, and Thunderbird is a bit of a headache I find, with some things 
overautomated and some erratic behavior when working with both plain 
text and HTML mail.  Of the two I find Mozilla much better.
