It's a good idea if you add "delete history" in history window, it's more easy for user than to delete history file in ~/.kde/share/apps/kopete/

please be really careful with this. some people (like me :) have a large and important history. so the default option should be not to delete old messages at all. if not, someone could update to new kopete, overlook this new option and lose the old history.

also, the history should be encrypted.

Dear user, unfortunately Kopete is no longer maintained.

Please migrate to another solution, e.g. for Jabber a possibility is Kaidan, for Matrix a candidate is NeoChat.
