Description

As a user I want to cancel delayed sent messages not needed any more to keep state clean.

Use case:

My use-case is processing business events of customers. Those events are triggered by ourself or by the customer depending of what's the current state of the ongoing customer's business use-case. We need to monitor delayed/missing business events which belong to previous events. For example: the customer has to confirm something we did. Depending on what it is the confirmation has to be within hours, days or even months. If there is a delay we need to know. But if the customer confirms in time we want to cleanup to keep the state small.
