Ok...

Well you could set up messages to be sent to your email inbox. Then you can read them in your emails and still have the notification when you log into facebook.

Home>account settings>notifications>Facebook>sends you a message (tick this box)


***
It does not "forward" the message. A Facebook message is not an email & can't be forwarded to an email account like you seem to suggest...
It simply gives you an email notification (as well as a Facebook notification). I used to get them all the time. Definitely works. I stopped it because I didn't like having to get rid of double the notifications, seemed like a waste of time.

I'm not offending this answerer but trying to forward the fb msg to the hotmail or any other email won't do the thing .Actually , when I receive a msg from fb it is also sent to my hotmail inbox and even if I read it the notification will go.In order to keep the msg notification, mark your read msg as an unread message.Just tick "Mark as unread" it should be in the inbox page in facebook or when you open the msg.You can easily find it Smile
