XF 2.3 Import / Create users by email address only

I have lists of forum members from an old forum I shut. 23,k accounts. And I'd like to import them to an existing forum.

Is there a way to do this so I can set them all up an account, and allow them to change their usernames once logged in or something. So perhaps have them numbered or alphabetised or something?

Not sure how this could be done but somebody surely has had this problem before.

I assume that that old forum was also xenforo? If I am right in my assumption, what version was it? If it was a very old version the database structure might be different from the current version. The old forum must be upgraded to version 2.3.7 first and only then you can perform a merge of both forums.
