Defaults to 0 (most recent message). limit (``int``, *optional*): Limits the number of messages to be retrieved. By default, the first 100 messages are returned. offset_id (``int``, *optional*): Pass a message identifier as offset to retrieve only older messages starting from that message. offset_date (``int``, *optional*): Pass a date in Unix time as offset to retrieve only older messages starting from that date. Returns: On success, a :obj:`Messages ` object is returned. Raises: :class:`Error ` in case of a Telegram RPC error.
