IMHO you can't (anymore).

If you want detail information (e.g. what specific items were ordered), that
isn't available. But you can get most other information:

After getting the order numbers from that download you can search your emails
to find a plain text order lists of the items if you haven't deleted the
emails.

I would like to see this changed to deleted after 3 years. Data storage is dirt
cheap nowadays. I don't see why Bricklink can't archive them long-term.

While I do download orders, there are two reasons for keeping them around.

1.) Tax purposes.
2.) Reviewing items I have purchased from sellers I have purchased from. (ie
I trust some sellers for specific types of parts and not others due to lax quality
control standards / to see historical prices I paid)
