A message is a communication sent via E-mail or news. E-mail messages are private in nature and may only be read by the people designated as the recipients. E-mail is analogous to a letter. News messages are more public and can be read by anyone looking at the newsgroup to which the news message was sent. News messages are analogous to posting a notice on a bulletin board. The action of sending a message to a newsgroup is often called a post, and the sender is often called a poster.
The content of psychic communication regardless of the type or form of delivery.
1. A sequence of characters used to convey information or data. In data communications, messages are usually in an agreed format with a heading, which establishes the destination of the message, and text, which consists of the data to be sent. 2. A block of text or recording delivered by a messaging system. See e-mail, instant messaging, voice mail and unified messaging.

the actual information or signal sent from a sender to a receiver. The "content" of a communication.
The “what” being communicated. Verbal and nonverbal communications can influence reception of the message, so speakers must be careful to attend to both.

The contents of an email communication, contained in the message body.
(1) (n.) The information which is generated by an application that indicates a process's status.(2) (n.) One or more linked message blocks. A message is referenced by its first message block and its type is defined by the message type of that block.(3) Data in the form of a gss_buffer_t object that is sent from one GSS-API-based application to its peer. An example of a message is “ ls†sent to a remote ftp server. A message can contain more than just the user-provided data. For example, gss_wrap() takes an unwrapped message and produces a wrapped one to be sent. The wrapped message includes both the original message and an accompanying MIC. GSS-API-generated information that does not include a message is a token. See token for more information. See also wrapper.
A formal communication by one house to the other house concerning action taken on a bill.
A message is sent to a user for a number of events, which may be triggered by the system (such as link check messages), or directly (by sending a message) or indirectly (by deleting a reference so that a user shadow is affected) by other user s. Messages are always categorized according to the bibliography which triggered the message.

Electronic communication with Agencies is performed via Messages. An example of a Message is a License/Permit/Registration Application directed to a specific Agency or a message intended for SCBOS Accounting.
A unit of communication during collaborations between objects. In OOA/D the message passed between objects and the responsibility implementation, usually a method, that responds to it are kept separate. The notion of message is quite conceptual in OOA/D and supports methodological approaches for constructing OO software. In particular, messages are regarded as announcements that something has happened in the sender, rather than as an imperative to the receiver to do something specific. In OOP and the OOPLs this distinction is not made because of the compromises that the OOPLs must make with computational models. However, if the OOA/D has been done properly, this loss of detail is benign because the responsibilities and collaborations defined in the OOA/D were done properly. (See category on what OO is all about.)

The content of the communicative act.
(1.) Information from the system that informs the user of a condition that may affect further processing of a current program. (2.)

A general method of communication between two processes. (5.) A group of characters and control bit sequences transferred as an entity. (6.)

the thought, feeling or idea being conveyed in communication.
Message in its most general meaning is an object of communication. It is something which provides information; it can also be this information itself. Therefore, its meaning is dependent upon the context in which it is used; the term may apply to both the information and its form.
