My guess is most of the major chat players handle this pretty easily -- it's a non-starter for many potential users if you don't. Zulip stores all data indefinitely (including message edits, etc) in its default configuration.

In case anyone runs into this in the future, Zulip has a few features that could help: * You can set a message retention policy that will delete each message after N days. (We're building the UI for it, but currently you can email supp
