Is there a way to set a TOTAL message number limit in a RabbitMQ queue? x-max-length doesn't take into account the unacked messages

Question

I need a queue with limited message inside considering not only message in queue but also the unacked ones. Is there a way to configure this server side? If yes is it possible using kobu as library?

Thank you

The RabbitMQ team monitors the rabbitmq-users mailing list and only sometimes answers questions on StackOverflow.

The documentation clearly states that queue length uses the count of ready messages: https://www.rabbitmq.com/maxlength.html
