I would think that they would. If e-mails can be retrieved I would thing instant messages would be also.

(Just because you did not see it or read it, that does not mean it did or did not happen.)

It is my understanding that the hosting IM company (AOL, Yahoo, MSN, etc.) keeps the IM's for a period of about 3 years. LE would then subpoena the host to retrieve the IM's.
