Hi, anyone know how this can be done through the admin or another way?

you can't, hence the name PRIVATE message.. not possible (at least to my knowledge).

Of course it's possible. One way, which is cumbersome, but works, is that you can view them in any good program which will read a sql file. The database backup is, afterall, merely a text file with a certain formating. The PM are visible in that file in plain text and not encrypted in any manner.

It might be appropriate, however, to warn the users that their "Private Messages" are subject to review by Administration.

I also seem to recall hacks offered which permit admins to review PMs.
