Probably not relevant to the OP, but did you try to configure T'bird to look
at a local folder where your mail was stored (you'll probably need T'bird's
movemail for this):

I've been able to access local mail storage with mutt and with Kmail - but
have not tried T'bird.
I've finally had a chance to look at movemail in TB, seems it was
removed approximately 7 years ago [1]. Somebody posted a possible
workaround [2] but I'm not going that way. 2 years ago there was the
intention to restore it but I see no activity on that bug.
Funny, [4] suggests going back to seamonkey for movemail support. I once
was a happy seamonkey user then switched to FF/TB because SM seemed
unmaintained, but from the website it looks like it's still alive and
kicking.
