Hi group,

I have implemented a customized mailbox following this official document 
http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/current/java/mailboxes.html.
The customized mailbox works fine. However, my question is how do I create 
a parameterized mailbox so that additional parameters can be passed into 
the mailbox when creating it?

In the example of the document, it seems that the signature of the 
constructor of the customized mailbox is fixed as follows

   1. // This constructor signature must exist, it will be called by Akka
   2. public MyUnboundedJMailbox(ActorSystem.Settings settings, Config 
   config) {
   3. // put your initialization code here
   4. }

I am wondering if there is a way to pass additional parameters into this 
constructor?

Here is the usage scenario of my customized mailbox. I want to create 
different mailboxes for different *actor instances. *However, these 
mailboxes share similar functionality, but behave differently based on only 
an additional parameter. Currently, I have to hard code the parameter into 
the mailbox class. As a result, I have to create a different mailbox class 
for a different parameter. If there is a way to create a parameterized 
mailbox, then I only have to create one mailbox class. Please let me know 
if this is possible!

Thank you!

Sihan
