Sending and Serializing Messages

A message in Microsoft Windows Message Queuing consists of a body and a set of properties. Message bodies can contain text or any form of binary information, and can be encrypted. You set a message's body and properties programmatically, either by setting property values in the Properties window or by setting the required values in code. A message, including its body and all specified properties, cannot be bigger than 4 megabytes (MB) in size.

You can create and send messages with your MessageQueue components. Messages created in your applications can be sent to any public, private, journal, dead-letter, or transactional queue.
