1. case class ExpiredLetter(message: Any, sender: ActorRef, recipient: ActorRef) extends Product with Serializable

   

   A wrapper for Messages that went "stale" by sitting in the Mailbox's queue for longer than mailbox-expiration-timems before being dequeued.

   A wrapper for Messages that went "stale" by sitting in the Mailbox's queue for longer than mailbox-expiration-timems before being dequeued. com.paypal.cascade.akka.mailbox.ExpiredLetters are still delivered to the original receiving Actor, as this is how akka works. In the future, it may make sense to have an com.paypal.cascade.akka.mailbox.ExpiredLetter event stream similar to the akka.actor.DeadLetter stream/handler, and avoid delivering com.paypal.cascade.akka.mailbox.ExpiredLetters to the original recipient.

   message

   the original message sent by sender

   sender

   the sender of the expired message

   recipient

   the intended recipient of the expired message

   akka BoundedMailbox that will immediately send a Status.Failure to the sender if the mailbox is full and the message can't be delivered within the push timeout, or if the message sits in the mailbox longer than the expiration timeout.
