     specified message.

     The m argument is the opaque handle for the message involved in this
     operation.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, the tt_message_state() function returns a
     value that indicates the current delivery state of the message.  The
     tt_message_state() function returns one of the following Tt_status
     values:

        TT_CREATED
                The message has been created, but not yet sent.

        TT_SENT
                The message has been sent, but not yet handled.

        TT_HANDLED
                The message has been handled; return values are valid.

        TT_FAILED
                The message could not be delivered to a handler.

        TT_QUEUED
                The message has been queued for delivery.

        TT_STARTED
                The ToolTalk service is attempting to start a process to
                handle the message.

        TT_REJECTED
                The message has been rejected by a possible handler.

     The application can use tt_int_error(3) to extract one of the following
     Tt_status values from the Tt_state integer return value:

        TT_OK   The operation completed successfully.

        TT_ERR_NOMP
                The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk
                service cannot restart it.
