20.2. Configuring Expiry Addresses

Expiry addresses are defined in the address-setting configuration: 
<!-- expired messages in exampleQueue will be sent to the expiry address expiryQueue -->
<address-setting match="jms.queue.exampleQueue">
   <expiry-address>jms.queue.expiryQueue</expiry-address>
</address-setting>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
If messages are expired and no expiry address is specified, they are removed from the queue and dropped. Address wildcards can be used to configure expiry address for a set of addresses (see Chapter 11, Understanding the HornetQ Wildcard Syntax).
