Thank you @miconda. I'll take a deeper look into the PostgreSQL TEXT type for the `msg` field and create a pull request if necessary. I was looking through other scripts that use `bytea` for message body-type fields, such as msilo, presence, and rls. They all seem to insert the [bytea Hex format](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/datatype-binary.html#id-1.5.7.12.9) rather than text, but I'll have to investigate more.
