Handling Message That Crashes Consumers

[Rob <se...@verizon.net>]

I've been doing some scenario research have a question:

If I have a message that is crashing all of my consumers, how do I 
detect and delete this message?

Thanks

The broker tracks the number of times a message has been redelivered.
Once a message has hit the maximum number of redeliveries, the message
is considered to be a poison message and it is sent to the dead letter
queue for manual handling. See the following for more information:
