Grace Lamb upset by a quick message (9)

I believe the answer is:

cablegram

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'a quick message' is the definition.
'cablegram' can be an answer for 'message' (cablegram is a kind of message). I am not sure about the 'a quick' bit.

'grace lamb upset' is the wordplay.
'upset' is an anagram indicator.
'grace'+'lamb'='gracelamb'
'gracelamb' anagrammed gives 'CABLEGRAM'.

'by' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for cablegram that I've seen is " Urgent message".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish News.
