| Option to archive and save all IM's in your IM history
How about an option to archive your IM History into a html file for immediate download and then the file is erased after the file download is complete?
Then maybe a next option to allow the bulk delete of your IM History should you chose.
Currently I copy and paste my IM History into Word which gets tedious if I don't do so for a couple months. |

I think it would be a good option. |

Question, why would you want to archive your IM history? I guess nobody has ever sent me an IM I thought was worth keeping so...

A lot of them are technical in nature.
I can average upwards of 600+ in 4 months time.
I've archived mine manually since I became a member.
The archives I've created have helped me help others many times by recalling info from them. |

Why archive them? Just leave them on the server. They're searchable and take up room on somebody else's drive, not yours.

| At some point... maybe something like six months, the older IMs start dropping off the radar. I remember reading about that some time ago. So if someone really wanted to permanently archive every one of his/her IMs, offsite would seem to be the only way.

said by Ken :Question, why would you want to archive your IM history? Well apparently there is a site bug where some saved IM's can just disappear, so I would see why someone may want to use a feature such as this.
