The location of the folder can be found by following the instructions on this link.
On Windows:
Select Run... from the Start menu.
Type "%appdata%" (without the quotes).
Hit Return. Open the Thunderbird
folder. Go to the Profiles folder.
Now
open the folder of your Mozilla
Thunderbird profile (probably
"********.default" where the '*'s
stand for random characters) and the
folder beneath it.
As an aside, it's possible over the years that you may have more than one profile folder, so it's worth having a look for other locations in the general vicinity.
As for file types, the extension for Thunderbird mail is .msf, with a coinciding file name without an extension that stores the actual data.
You will not be able to view the data by double-clicking on the file, due to the way the data is stored.
