When you receive this event, it means another Y client, the Y server, or even your own Y client has sent a client message to notify you of something.

The purpose, meaning, and required responses are defined by the client. This is usually indicated by the value of the member type. However it is up to the Y client to determine how to respond to the message.

Most messages can simply be ignored if you do not know what they mean. Note that the message is not null terminated.
