The Messaging Console is a command line tool for interacting with configured message exchanges. You can use the Messaging Console to view existing exchanges on local and remote computers. The Messaging Console lets you connect to a particular exchange to perform exchange operations. You can send and retrieve messages, list the exchange contents, query the contents, submit a log entry to the exchange, and more.
