I have the following problem with aliases: there's a local user here
with that account name that I send a lot of e-mail to, however,
messenger got [e-mail] address from somewhere and is
autocompleting messages to that domain. I want to purge the list of aliases
somehow. For now I turned autocompletion off, but I want to have it on,
just have it start from scratch. Is it safe to delete history.mab or
the process is more involved?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable collection of address book entries from outgoing messages
2. Send a message to [e-mail]
3. Type a message to foo -> it gets automcompleted to 
[e-mail] even though you wanted a local recipient
and the last message you've sent was to [e-mail]
Actual Results:  
the message gets delivered to [e-mail]

Expected Results:  
It should've looked up what address foo was a part of last time you've sent a
message to an address starting with foo
