Nothing - except they are proprietary.

Moreover, I suppose the system isn't as refined as other
message passing systems (MQ-Series, M$ queue server).

Do we have synchr. and asynchr. events? Does the system
stores messages if the system crashes and resends them
if it's up again?

Do we have user defined timeouts?

I don't know, if these features are available. Do you?
