The WebSphere MQ-bridge's transmission queue listener acts in a similar way to a WebSphere MQ connection, pulling messages from a WebSphere MQ transmission queue, and delivering them to the WebSphere MQ Everyplace network. It follows the WebSphere MQ Everyplace convention in that if a message cannot be delivered, an undelivered message rule is consulted to determine how the transmission queue listener should react. If the rule indicates the report options in the message header, and these indicate that the message should be put onto a dead-letter queue, the message is placed on the WebSphere MQ queue (on the sending queue manager).
