actor. The supplied
timeout is used for cleanup purposes and its precision is subject to the
resolution of the system’s scheduler (usually 100ms, but configurable).
Warning: This method blocks the current thread until a message is received, thus it can introduce dead-locks (directly as well as indirectly by causing starvation of the thread pool). Do not use this method within an actor!
