There is nothing regarding this because there's no limit. A folder
begins to slow down a bit once there more than about 12000 messages
in there, although some of my archive folders have more than 20000
messages. Once a folder fills up, you can always hive off older
messages into a sub-folder. The search facilities are superb and let
you scan sub-folders in a sweep.

I believe it will, although you may have to import them in fits and
starts - TB won't choke on holding the data but has been known to
gag on large / large quantities of OE folders.
