Backing up PMs

Is this at all possible on boards.ie? I would like to send all my PMs to an email address and then delete the ones that I have on boards.ie.

You can back your PMs up, yes.

Go to your Inbox and scroll down to the bottom where it says "Download all Private Messages as :" and you can download them as a CSV or text or XML file. With that you can open them up like a database or from Excel if you like.

So to send them all to an email address you'll need to download the csv/xml file to the computer you are using and then attach it to an email to send on to the address you want.
