For Thunderbird 68 and later see:

https://github.com/thundernest
https://developer.thunderbird.net/
https://thunderbird-webextensions.readt ... index.html
https://github.com/thundernest/import-export-tools-ng (a webextension replacement for ImportExportTools)

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1513652 (Updated Developer Guide for Thunderbird)

My impression is that anything Thunderbird specific on MDN is going to become irrelevant/outdated .
