             Summary: When delivery fails the router sends the RELEASED disposition, not MODIFIED
                 Key: DISPATCH-366
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-366
             Project: Qpid Dispatch
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Router Node
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
            Reporter: Ken Giusti
            Priority: Blocker
             Fix For: 0.6.0


The router does not properly distinguish between a delivery failure and undeliverable.

In the case of a delivery failure - where the router cannot ensure that the message wasn't consumed - the router must send back the MODIFIED terminal disposition with the delivery-failed flag set. This is necessary as the sender must increment the message's delivery-count if it retransmits.

In the case of an undeliverable message - where the router cannot forward a message to the destination - the router must send back the RELEASED terminal disposition.  RELEASED informs the sender that the message was not acted upon.  The sender must not increment the message's delivery-count if it retransmits.

Currently the router uses RELEASED in both these cases.
