Archiving Private Messages.

[Wayland]

Is there any way of archiving my private messages.

I'm hovering around the 500 mark but there are a lot of messages I want to keep for reference.

I keep having to clear out the last 40 or so and even that is getting more difficult.

Hi ,
There's an option to download them all , don't know if that's any help .
Cheers , Trev .

Ah, right found that button, but how do I select them all instead of just the few that are on the screen.

I thought it was the button at the top but that only selects one screen.

I don't want 25 different downloads, I want them in one place if possible.

At the bottom of the page it says :-

Download all Private Messages as:
XML | CSV | Text

hopefully the all really means all and not just the current page

Yes, it does.

The file came down as 'private.php' when saved as text. just rename the file private.txt and you can open it up in word easy enough.

My in and sent boxes live at the permanently almost full stage, and when I do give in and clear the whole lot out, as sure as eggs is eggs, I need something I've just gotten rid of.

Thank you

Hmmm, Toddy with an empty Inbox. I'm regarding this possibility with some skepticism.

Woo Hoo... Job done.

Using firefox lol, its perhaps because I used Freedownload Accelerator, its a fantastic programme, gets my movies in super fast time but sometimes tags files with the .php extension. Its worth using as it is lightning quick compared to Download helper in Firefox.

Downloaded as text but only seems to have the messages I sent, not the ones to me:?
