(contact-the-server)) If the body form completes within reasonable time (defined by `delayed-message-timeout', say 1 second), no message is displayed. If more time than that passes, the message is displayed until the form exits. This has to happen no matter what Emacs is doing -- blocking on DNS resolution, or running Emacs Lisp code. When the body exits, the message (if it has been displayed) is cleared (and any previous message shown in the echo area is restored).
