Insurance case needs about 400 Thunderbird emails preserved as PDFs with headers and attachments visible. Print to PDF one at a time loses attachments entirely. Batch route that keeps everything?

SysTools MBOX to PDF Converter works straight from the Thunderbird profile. Point it at the MBOX files under your profile folder, it outputs one PDF per email with full headers and embeds attachments inside each PDF. Date and subject naming keeps the set sortable for the case file.

Filter by folder or date range first so you convert the 400 relevant messages rather than the whole account.

Filtered to the case date range, 407 PDFs with attachments embedded. Legal accepted the set. Solved.
