Message format
In telecommunications, a message format is a predetermined or prescribed spatial or time-sequential arrangement of the parts of a message that is recorded in or on a data storage medium.
At one time, messages prepared for electrical transmission were composed on a printed blank form with spaces for each part of the message and for administrative entries.
