The file has localized header. You need to create https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/blob/master/program/localization/en_US/csv2vcard.inc file for your localization (fr_FR?). Would be nice if you could provide that. Remember to not just translate the labels, they need to be the same as used in Thunderbid and Outlook csv files.

I think there will be a problem with the french version of this file.

Because there are some problems (errors ?) in the labels.
Country is in the "Rgion" (state/province) column
And work_zipcode and home_zipcode have the same column name : "Code postal"
And home_country and work_country have the same column name : "Rgion"

These are Thunderbird errors. I don't think we can do anything with this.

I think we shouldn't wait for Thunderbird fix. Could you provide the file, so we could close this ticket? It's better to have it even with some small issues.

Thanks. However, I see it doesn't contain Outlook labels which are shared by Thunderbird. So, without them import from Thunderbird will still skip many important fields.

Fixed in 0b0caee. We'll update when Thunderbird will fix its issue.

I just added the output of the german version of tb-csv-export. I dont have Outlook. I also filled fields that were missing under Thunderbird-section, but present in Oulook-section and outcommented the rest since important stuff like first name was absent in the thunderbird section.
Did you think about the possibility of different translations in different programs? Or vice versa? 'birth_day' and 'Birthday' is such a thing, its both 'Geburtstag' in german.
