Running message handlers syncronously

[mhkolk]

If I set up multiple message handlers for single message type, they will run asynchronously and possibly out of order. Or, a second handler specified might start before the first one did its job.

Is there a way to ensure synchronicity?

For example: my first handler might be called ArchiveMessageHandler and it will store the message received into database. My next handler will run for that same message but requires that the message is already stored in the database to process it.

What is the guidance here?
