Hi Will,

We use an embedded broker  Here is the url.

tcp://{0}:{1}?jms.useAsyncSend=false&jms.optimizeAcknowledge=false&jms.prefe
tchPolicy.all=1000";

 The problem started when optimizeAcknowledge=true was used.  Also I cannt
get old messages in the topics to timeout.  Some do, most don¹t.


Hope this helps.

Rick
