How do we know these are really emails from HRC? Can someone help me understand?
After doing a bit of digging, the oddest thing I've found is this: a file/email titled List of Listed Danish Child Porn Domaims 2008.
Upon clicking on it, it was nothing but a long long list of hundreds of URLs for what are clearly CP sites. They contain names including:

Is this page accessible from Wikileaks' main page? Is it some sort of index?

It's a files index which has not changed for some time and can be seen to have existed (via web.archive.org) for a very long time.
This is not a "new dump". Claims of this being new were circulated on twitter and voat (among others) about a month or 2 ago, but it is a demonstrably false claim.
With all of that said, the list is very useful and I fully encourage everyone to sift through it at their convenience for anything which may be of assistance in any given probe into corruption and/or trafficking or institutional pedophilia, etc.

@argosvic thank you for the info. Why would the list I mentioned be on that website?

Short answer:
Convenience for accessing and distributing all files regardless of which page of the website displays the files' content.
Longer answer:
The files are stored in a particular directory which is accessible via file.wikileaks.org. Visiting that link directly lists the files index of the folder which that subdomain points to. In that folder we have a folder called file. In that folder, we find the list of folders which contains files corresponding to particular publications/dumps/categories.
If Wikileaks wanted to disable the ability to browse this file/folder index, it would be incredibly easy to disable the default index display functionality (a very rudimentary process in terms of website development). They have chosen not to, presumably for the aforementioned purpose of user convenience.
