The second link is negative. I stopped pretending that bugtrackers

I can not post the link to straight-out of the box Thunderbird here
(current repository is against the policy in Guix), but if you really
want to work on it I can send you the link offlist (just contact me at
address@hidden).

Thunderbird has its own format, right? .eml, but can export to mbox.
So I guess anything that reads mbox would work?
