Please get Markdc removed. It is obviously a blatant spammer trying to push a paid for product.

Thank you Markdc for the link. Researching further there is a free PST File Viewer which views Contacts (aka Address Books).
PST File Viewer v18.0
Open PST File without Outlook
SysInfoTools PST viewer easily open all your Outlook data files without MS Outlook whether they are corrupt or not. With this utility you can view all the details of Contacts, Journals, Tasks and Emails with their attachments and meta properties.
https://www.sysinfotools.com/recovery/pst-file-viewer.php
It is understood that Thunderbird is currently undergoing a major Address Book rewrite/upgrade.
Would Thunderbird “Outlook Import” also work to import Outlook Contacts into Thunderbird Address Books:
- without Outlook being installed; and
- with computers with GNU/Linux
Thank you

Hello,
This is my first message in Bugzilla and I hope I’m in the right thread.
I have also experienced problems to import my PST file: right after selecting the file, Thunderbird systematically crashes. The feature was reintroduced in TB 60 and, as far as I can remember, it seemed to work at first, but some time later, when I decided to fully import all my messages and tried again, it didn't work any more. My setup includes TB 68.3.1 and Microsoft Office 2016. I’ve tried with both the 32-bit and the 64-bit versions.
Is there anything else I could try?
Thanks in advance.

Hello, again,
I forgot to mention that, a few weeks ago, frustrated as I was with the import tool, I tried TB portable 60.9.1 from PortableApps, which seemed to fully import my PST file.
I guess that, when I format my PC again, I could install TB 60.9.1, use the import tool and then update it to the latest version, but it would certainly make things easier if the feature could work in the latest release.

Can confirm working in 60.9.1 and broken in 68.4.2. Import Outlook message causes immediate crash.

LibreOffice Writer document with How to move Microsoft Outlook Contacts to a Mozilla Thunderbird Address Book
version 2021.06.19.
Hope this can help with implementing migrating Outlook Contact into Thunderbird.
Please advise if there are any improvements, eg
- URL address export
Will attach to this issue the Microsoft Outlook VBA code
and bash encoding.sh
text files next.
Hope this can also help people who want to migrated of the End-Of-Life Microsoft Outlook 2010.
Thank you

A revised importer is available in beta from Bug 1720042 - Order and logic of import dialogs should be changed to allow selecting the app to import before what to import. It specifically has a new importer for Mac. The current beta is available at https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/#channel (installing and starting beta will cause the beta to want to use a new thunderbird profile, so be aware of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/using-multiple-profiles)
