You can view and delete the conversations you had with your Facebook friends whenever you wish to.
Whether you want to see an important message you sent to a client or customer or recall something
you may have said that was of significance, viewing earlier sent Facebook messages can prove
useful.
When you send messages to a customer who’s on your personal Facebook friends list, or for whom
you have an email address, the message will come from your personal account name, not your
business page name.
Interestingly, Facebook saves sent and received messages for reference purposes. You can check
out sent messages anytime you want.
