Sender-side deleting pending messages in mpsc channel

Please is there a way for sender to delete pending messages sent to mpsc channel (or crossbeam-channel or equivalent) which have not been consumed by the receiver yet? Something like sender.deleteAllPending().

You can't do that with mspc which is "single consumer".

With crossbeam, you can have multiple receivers. So you can clone and keep a receiver "sender side", so you can drain it.
