GetMessage and PeekMessage are used to get a message from message queue while PostMessage is used to post a message. The major difference between GetMessage and PeekMessage is that GetMessage doesn't return until it finds a message to retrieve from the Message Queue and PeekMessage() returns immediately weather there are any messages or not. While PostMessage is used to post a message to window and it returns immediately without waiting for the response.

SendMessage :) Which the same as PostMessage except it blocks until the message has been processed by the window.
