Have you tried using Entourage's File --> Import... command?

First of all, you will need to get your messages out of Thunderbird, in a
format that can be read by other mail clients. To do that, install the
extension "ImportExportTools", which you can find here:

<https://nic-nac-project.org/~kaosmos/mboximport-en.html>

Use it to export your messages in mbox files, which you can then simlpy drag
into Entourage's folder list.

I converted thunderbird users to Entourage by setting up a local IMAP server
and having them drag folders up there in Tbird, and back into Entourage.
Works great, if you have the luxury of an underutilitzed server on your
network.
