Answer 1

I don't realy understand what you want to do :). you set fields with empty values.... anyway to create a messege in NS1.0. you need this :

var message = nlapiCreateRecord("message");

/** mandatory fields */
message.setFieldValue('subject', "message title");
message.setFieldValue('message', "message body");
/** /mandatory fields */

/** attach the msg to a record, transaction */

/** customers, prospects, etc */
message.setFieldValue('entity', "entityInternalID"); 

/** sales orders, invoices, etc */
message.setFieldValue('transaction', "transactionInternalID");

/** cases */
message.setFieldValue('activity', "caseInternalId");

/** /attach the msg to a record, transaction */

/** save the msg */
var msgId = nlapiSubmitRecord(message, true);

First, let us know what kind of script you are creating? Is it a userevent or client script? Anyway, since you have mentioned that you want it to run in 3 specific context I'm assuming it is a userevent script. I highly discouraged using 1.0 if you're developing a Netsuite script. It will be unsupported soon and will become obsolete. Here's a detailed example on how to create userevent script https://netsuite.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/51660/kw/Creating%20a%20user%20event%20script
