irrelevant: the application never needs to directly address these queues. However, these

delivered to a consumer. If the count ever exceeds a threshold value, the Broker moves the
message to a dead letter queue (DLQ). This is used to prevent poison messages preventing a
system's operation. This client feature requires support for the corresponding feature by
the Broker.</p><p>When using this feature, the application must either set system property <a class="link" href="JMS-Client-0-8-System-Properties.html#JMS-Client-0-8-System-Properties-RejectBehaviour">qpid.reject.behaviour</a> or
the Binding URL option <a class="link" href="JMS-Client-0-8-Binding-URL.html#JMS-Client-0-8-Binding-URL-Options-RejectBehaviour"><code class="literal">rejectbehaviour</code></a> to the value
