Dead letters equivalent?

Is there an equivalent of dead letters in pykka?
I.e. ability to see all the message (at least in a log) that were not delivered anywhere?
Currently, I implement this as follows in my actor:
if message.get('command') == 'poll':
# logic
else:
logging.log(logging.DEBUG, 'Dead letters: ' + str(message))

The default implementation of on_receive()
in the Actor
class will log any unexpected messages on the WARNING
log level. If using that, your example could then be updated to:
def on_receive(self, message):
if message.get('command') == 'poll':
... # logic
else:
super().on_receive(message)
I'll see if we can improve the docs to include a section on unexpected messages.
