Can you not export as vCards (from the Mac computer, not from .Mac) and then
import?

Thanks for responding Tim.

At the time I didn't have access to either of my Macs and was trying to grab
the info from .mac to set up a linux box.

After I got home I was able to get the info from a Mac and now am living
happily ever after. ;)

I suggest the OP synchronize his .Mac account with Address Book, then
output a CSV file from Address Book for use with Thurderbird.

Click on the following link to download a public domain utility called
AddressBooktoCSV. As its name implies, this utility can generate a CSV
file from the contents of the Address Book.

I don't know Thunderbird, but it should be able to use that CSV file as
input.
