Missing migration tool?

Hi there. I would like to finally more on to Pale Moon, but I wish to take all my data from Firefox. Sadly, when I tried to download the migration tool from the site, a 404 message shows up. The search in the forum didn't show anything about the missing tool, so, well, here I am, on a dedicated for this topic. So, can someone help me out on this one?

That's an oops on my part. I moved some subdomains around and didn't realize the relmirror copy was missing some files (tools, langpacks, android beta). The tools should be available again now.

Damn, this tool is quite the magic. I never imagined something so little could be so useful - fully transfered settings on both browser and addons, history, everything is here. Well, except for the UI, which I had to fix myself, but, then again, I customized it to be exceptionally thin, this is what I mean:

The pile of trash called Australis in FF managed to ruin the possibility to combine the url bar with the tabs, which I managed to restore with two addons... not very practical is it? Firefox was all about customization in its core, but not anymore.. not to mention how heavy it became. Anyway, thanks again, I hope this time I will stick for good with Pale Moon

The FossMail site: http://www.fossamail.org/backuptool.shtml used to have a Thunderbird Migration tool, it disappeared?

Here is the one I got BEFORE it disappeared: See attachment tb2fm-migrate.zip

The ONLY PROBLEM is it hangs or stops and you constantly need to press Continue button til finished.
Too bad there's no way to import the profile and settings of Mozilla Thunderbird before, ney using this tool?

Moonchild are you listening? Thanks, PMFan1

**Attachment removed** Please download form the FossaMail website ;)

I've never actually put the FossaMail migration tool page up on the web. I did post it on the forum before.

I've made it available on the website now, though.
