The answer certainly lies in the setting of the noAck flag. The
Subscription class sets this to true by default, meaning that messages
are automatically acknowledged on the server upon delivery. You should
set noAck to false to make sure that messages are only removed from the
queue after explicit acknowledgement from the client.
