Examples of messaging systems include e-mail, voice messaging and instant messaging. Systems that combine text and voice message functions are known as unified messaging systems. See instant messaging, voice mail and unified messaging. 2. A middleware term for a simple, one-way transfer of data; also known as "message passing." See message passing.

Text paging, e-mail or short messages delivered to alphanumeric pagers and other wireless devices.
the sending and processing of e-mail by computer
Data and voice communications that include e-mail, information services, sound bytes and pager messages. Messaging usually refers to short text messages, although they may include graphics and web files.
In addition to typing comments in the main channel window, and talking to people in query windows, you can send someone a private message in the main channel window. The message appears in a different colour, and only the person you sent it to will see it. For example: /msg NickName Hello there! Long time no see! will send the message Hello there! Long time no see! to the person called NickName, and will appear on their screen in brown. Messaging is probably used for a quick question and answer where opening a query window might not be necessary. I don't use it much, though. mIRC Editor The mIRC Editor is where you type in all your alias definitions, popup menu definitions and remote event scripts. You can get to the Editor by clicking on the aliases, popups or remotes buttons on the toolbar, or selecting Aliases, Popups or Remotes from the Tools menu. They all open the same editor, but each one opens up it's own little file (for example Aliases opens up the aliases file, Popups opens up the popups file and so on).
