Default DPS Private messages box

Hi everyone
My private messages box will soon have reached 50. I assume I have to empty it then before I can receive any more. As I re-read these sometimes and consider them important to me, is there any way they can be stored/transferred elsewhere or will they be lost forever? Thanks. PAUL

You could always copy and paste the text into a word document and keep it that way. I guess you could copy and paste a whole bunch of them and paste them into a single message that you send to yourself to keep here too.

If you have Microsoft One Note or the free Evernote programs, you can save them that way. I know that One Note saves the source as a footnote so you always know where you got the info from. I'm not sure if Evernote have that option...

If you scroll to the bottom of your list of private messages you should have the option to download them all in Text, XML, or CSV format. Screenshot with the relevant bit highlighted:
