System.Messaging is doing that, not MSMQ. Try to send it like this:
MessageQueue mq = new MessageQueue(textBoxAddr.Text);
System.Messaging.Message msg = new System.Messaging.Message();
msg.Label = "TestMessageLabel";

// Uncomment this line if you want to send authenticated messages.
// You need to be a part of domain for that
// msg.UseAuthentication = true;

StreamWriter wr = new
StreamWriter(msg.BodyStream,System.Text.Encoding.ASCII);
wr.Write(textBoxBody.Text);
wr.Flush();

mq.Send(msg,MessageQueueTransactionType.Single);
