There aren't single files at all. :/
Mozilla is still using the old mbox format so you will not find single
files for the mails.

And I personally think it wouldn't be helpful for the classical users to
really know there exactly a single mail is stored. Don't get me wrong, I
highly appreciate a Maildir storage system but is your wish really
useful for other users?
Currently you can save the selected message as *.eml file.

I can't reproduce that. I can change the ordering by what ever I want.
