oldest objects off the list.

Does D language have something like that?

The std.concurrency module does exactly that:

Cool article. First half of the article I was thinking, this 
isn't what I want. Then in the second half where you got into the 
mailbox analogy, that's exactly what I want.

Thanks.

If I want a non blocking receive call, would I do bool 
receiveTimeout(T...)(Duration duration, T ops); with a duration 
of 0?

Yes but I am not sure whether the thread simply checks whether there is 
a message or also sleeps for 0 msecs.
