Module messages 

Low-level binary payload messages for qaul.net

A set of utilities to dispatch and receive binary payload messages from a remote user on the network. Higher-level message abstractions are available as external services. Use this type if none of the existing message variants apply to your payload.

A message is always properly framed and checked for data and cryptographic signature integrity. When sending a message to a set of individual users (meaning not setting Mode::Flood), it is also encrypted.

Try avoid sending massive payloads to a set of recipients because the routing layer won’t be able to deduplicate frames that are encrypted. A filesharing service is available to make initiating lazy data pulls for your service.
