It's unclear to me what you are describing/asking here, could you elaborate?
If you send a message from a non actor the sender will be dead letter as
there is no actual actor to reply to.
Calling a function from the receive block doesn't require that function to
be in the same class (or file), just that it is available in the scope.
Note however that if it touches the internal state of the actor it is best
located inside the actor.
