Exporting EML files

[Kranix]

Exported a ton of ancient emails from my inbox, as .eml, then deleted the originals to make space. I'm looking at them and they weren't created by date received. I don't know what the criteria was but they aren't in chronological order, and now most of them have a date modified of today, so I can't sort them that way either.
Any way to organize .eml files into date email was recieved?

I know this a couple weeks old now not sure if you figured it out but I have experience with this...Aren't .EML files just individual emails and files? Normally, when you export from Outlook, all the emails (and contacts/calendars/tasks/etc.) should be under one container file like a .pst or .csv and the timestamps should be preserved.
