/**
* @file metis_MessengerRecipient.h
* @brief A recipient represents the entity that will recieve a Missive from the Messenger.
*
* A recipient is identified by the pair (contenxt, callback). The context is the recipients
* context, such as it's object pointer. The callback is the function the recipient uses
* to receive a Missive.
*
* If the receiver is going to do a lot of work or potentially send other missives, the receiver
* should queue the received notifications and process them in its own slice.
*
* A recipient will receive a reference counted copy of the missive, so it must call
* {@link metisMissive_Release} on it.
