The priority of a message type, if set, is used as the default priority of for messages of this type. The message type priority can either be set to a specific value or it can be unknown. When a message is created, its priority is initialized to the message type priority (if set) or to the value of the option Default_Msg_Priority (if the message type priority is unknown).
The priority of an outgoing message can always be set on a per-message basis, but using message type priorities makes it easier to raise or lower the default priority for all outgoing messages of a specific type. The standard SmartSockets message types by default all have a priority of unknown, but these can be changed. User-defined message types can also use whatever priority is appropriate.
When a message type is first created, its priority is initialized to unknown.
