title: Akka Persistence – Force replay
body: <p>My application needs to log all messages processed by an actor and replay messages between <code>minSequenceNr</code> and <code>maxSequenceNr</code> sometimes.</p>
  
  <p>Is akka-persistence a good for this use case? If yes, How can I force replay messages from journal? I can use <code>Persistence(actorSystem).journalFor("x")</code> to get a journal's ActorRef but I can't send <code>JournalProtocol.ReplayMessages</code> to it because <code>JournalProtocol</code> is private for <code>akka.persistence</code>.</p>
