e-message
Online written communication
An e-message is an electronic message—any communication sent digitally rather than on paper.
The term is somewhat dated, from the era when electronic communication was novel enough to need marking.
Email, texts, and direct messages are all e-messages, though those specific terms have largely displaced the generic one.
