Elegance message drone

An emissary droid ship is any ship that is designed for the sole purpose of carrying a message. During times of peace in the Old Republic, sometimes messages that had to travel only a short distance (such as from a planet, to one of its satellites) were carried by emissary droid ships. Alternately, in times of political uncertainty, (much later when the holonet was active in most parts of the galaxy), messages were sent over short distances using an emissary droid ship, to avoid being picked up and decoded by eaves-droppers.

The New Republic forces at Endor intercepted an emissary droid ship from Bakura, meant for the Imperial outpost there.
