Not to be a Luddite, but it might actually be best to print them out on good
quality paper and put them in the family photo album, or family bible or
wherever written correspondence from family members is preserved. They're a
lot more accessible to a lot more people for a much longer period of time in
a lot more situations this way than if kept in original format. And, you
can still preserve the electronic copies for as long as they're readable.

This may be somewhat simplistic, but... Maybe just doing a "save as" to
your hard drive directory. Then copying the contents to a CD. If/when
technology changes, you can migrate to that technology if you wish.
Like I said... Simplistic, but why over think it. Yes, these are very
valuable emails to you, but they will not be required in court. They
are only of value to you and your family and friends.
