I want to use Mail as a secondary email app, and therefore I also want to transfer all my email from Thunderbird into Mail. I went into Tbird and copied all the inboxes, adding .mbox as an extension, and then imported them into Mail. The problem is, even though the import went fine, it imported all email from the history of my account into Mail, and not just the messages in Thunderbird.

I went into Gmail online and cleared everything out, and tried the import again, but it still imports thousands of extra emails that i don't want, and don't want to have to sort through.

Any advice?
