I have been cleaning, purging, eliminating some of my 175 pages of PM's.

There are some I want to keep.

Is there some way to move or file them out of your pm slot?

I don't see a way other than copy and saving locally in a text file. You can create labels but that is only for organizing messages that exist in your inbox.  Once you delete from your inbox they are gone.

I don't see a save option, but you can highligt the text and copy using control c and then paste in a word document with control v.

Thanks Steve.

Depending on the browser you're using, you could also save a page at time as HTML to your local drive... just a thought.

I am in the process of cleaning them up and have about 5 pages so far that i want to keep.

You know death threats, etc. ;D

I guess there's another way to do it too, if you just put a check in the ones you want to delete, then hit the delete selected button, the ones you want to keep will stay in your pm list. Not sure if that's what you were looking for or not.

Copy and paste on a Word document I would think is the easiest.

And if that is the way to keep them safe, That kewl.

I just know I have gone looking for something and it's like doing a search

If you are really dedicated will you seperate the PM's on your Word documents by category.
