Yes, it is the object oriented message toolkit from Mark May.  I'm sure you
COULD code it in 15 minutes with the proper structures... the question is -
why?

I have used Mark May's toolkit extensively, and I could whip up some message
utilities extremely quickly with it because it takes all the down and dirty
coding out of the loop...

Your call.  Just thought I'd suggest it.
