Messages are non-dismissive in nature. They appear with the rest of the components and cannot be dismissed directly.
Inline message variant should be used when feedback relative to some specific content has to be provided to the users. Whereas, the standard message variant should be used when collective feedback for a section or an entire page has to be provided to the users.
Message component always appears at the top of a section but just below the header. The width of the message component always spans the width of its container or as per the content appearing below it.
Inline message component appears below the component it is related to, with a 4px margin at top and spans the width of the component.
