Sorry I need to elaborate more: akka has a strong use of single-consumer mailboxes and one actor can only be a single producer so a message send from a sender will always be "before" the next message, and for a destination that message will always come after a previous message for a recipient, it sounds repetitive but the concept is in itself a bit recursive....the happens before rules are hence implied to be true, by mathematical implication.
