This module allows you to log and display system events, creating an activity stream. It supports creating custom event types with fields and display modes, and integrates with other modules for notifications and digests.
The Message module is the core of the message stack. It enables logging and displaying system events in several different use cases. Events that are recorded over time are sometimes called activity streams. Exportable message subtypes can be created for various use cases with custom fields and display (view) modes.

- Message Notify – forward messages when they are generated
- Message Subscribe – register to be notified when messages are generated for specific content.
- Message Digest – Aggregates and sends digests of messages as configured by the recipient
