I have retreved the Thunderbird folder from a crashed WindowsXP and now

The Fedora install already has Thunderbird installed and New Emails are
already in Thunderbird, I want import the Emails from the WindowsXP
Thunderbird in with the existing emails already in Fedora Thunderbird.

How do I do that ??

 There's a profile folder for thunderbird. I believe all you need to
do is copy it to the .thunderbird folder in your home directory. If
you're using something like nautilus or nemo, you'll need to checkmark
"show hidden files"in the "view" section. If .thunderbird isn't
showing up then run it at least once and then copy over the profile
directory, which is usually something.default.
Keep in mind that I already have a existing profile and emails on my
Fedora Install, doing what you suggest would cause problems with the
existing emails I already have
