We explore the border between decidability and undecidability of verification problems related to message passing systems that admit unbounded creation of threads and name mobility. Inspired by use cases in real-life programs we introduce the notion of depth-bounded message passing systems. A configuration of a message passing system can be represented as a graph. In a depth-bounded system the length of the longest acyclic path in each reachable configuration is bounded by a constant. While the general reachability problem for depth-bounded systems is undecidable, we prove that control reachability is decidable. In our decidability proof we show that depth-bounded systems are well-structured transition systems to which a forward algorithm for the covering problem can be applied.
