Not at all. Some protocols have different delimiting characters, and
others don't have any such character at all - some rely on separate
"message byte count" information, usually packed in to the start of each
message. It depends on the protocol in question.

No, but now you're talking about stuff at a lower protocol level...

The latter - bytesAvailable() returns the total size of the data in the
receive buffer, which may be one protocol "message", or multiple
messages, or perhaps even less than one message, your mileage may vary. 

I hope this helps.
