Of course doing it manually like Steve suggested isn't a bad way to do it.
But if you're happy with one large folder for old messages you can
automate it fully:
. make the folder you want to move your messages in (duh) I suggest a
subfolder of the sent mail.
. make a sent mail filter applying to all mails and check the action to copy message
to another
folder and select the one you created.
. in the sent mail folder properties check the options "max number of
stored messages" and/or "keep messages in base fore days" and "remove
old messages".
This causes a slight amount of redundance, but IMHO it's even better this
way, as you always have a fully searchable archive in one folder.
