I've never thrown 10,000 at it, but Eudora 3.0/4.0 has given me no problems
with up to 4,000.

You can take a server-side approach and break the mbox into chunks, copying
each chunk back to the system mailbox, reading, copy, read, etc. (Break
each chunk at a message delimeter [From_], of course.) 'vi' is the
sledgehammer approach, and it's even easier if you have access to something
like the Perl mailtools.
