Outlook and Windows Mail store their account settings in the following registry. Which makes it possible to import those settings in a similar way as Thunderbird settings are imported.

Outlook:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\OMI Account Manager\Accounts\00000001

"Account Name"
"IMAP Server"
"IMAP User Name"

Windows Live Mail
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows Live Mail

Windows Mail
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows Mail
reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners" /s

Would it be possible to import from Thunderbird too (into the app)?

I am a bit confused, as you can read in the bug description you can import from thunderbird:

... to import those settings in a similar way as Thunderbird settings are imported.

The only pitfall is importing from linux is broken in 0.4 due to #180. But this is fixed on the trunk. So it will be fixed with the next release.
