One simple answer there is to split them into separate EagleFiler libraries, e.g. work related groups / general interest groups.  Alternatively splitting it into folders by year might help at the OS X file system level.

In EagleFiler it's best to merge the .eml files into mailbox files so that you have one file per group/folder rather than one per post:

Aside from helping with the filesystem issue, this also lets EagleFiler apply various RAM and index optimizations.
