Intermediate and End message throw events

There are indeed 2 main ways of sending messages
A Message Send Event and a Message Send Task. from an implementation point of view they would be the same. A java class that does something like this:

	execution.getProcessEngineServices()
		.getRuntimeService()
		.createMessageCorrelation("MessageName")
		.processInstanceBusinessKey("BusinessKey")
		.correlate();

One of the differences is indeed the ability to add a multi-instance but more importantly you can add a boundary event… for example an Error Boundary event. This can be quite useful.
