A good news! You can backup your chat logs in Gmail now with Gmail Keeper!
To do that, the first step is to enable IMAP access for your chats (this was not possible not long ago), illustrated in the following screenshot.
Then, in the backup settings window in Gmail Keeper, you must set ‘Chats‘ is a ‘Label’ when being asked, as shown in the following screenshot.
And the backed up gmail chats will be stored in eml format just like the ordinary emails. Check the screenshot below to have a look how the chat logs look like in the free Thunderbird email client program.

Hey Guys..
This post is awesome.. the only thing is that u dnt even need to buy or download gmailkeeper.. The IMAP works perfectly with the thunderbird itself. Just turn on the IMAP feature as told hereinabove, and allow the chats label to be shown in the imap folders. then in thunderbird, just select the chat messages u want to save, right click, select export, select the folder, n ok.
u will have all the chat sessions neatly stacked up in emails.
awesome. thanks google. thanks everyone.
Wondering when I’m going to receive information on my purchase of Gmailkeeper I made this morning……… Hello?
