[rabbitmq-discuss] routing key

Thu Oct 17 16:14:58 BST 2013

Wildcards only work to replace whole words in a routing key pattern (with
the '.' providing the boundary between words).  The tutorial on Topics
explains it like this:

However there are two important special cases for binding keys:

   - * (star) can substitute for exactly one word.
   - # (hash) can substitute for zero or more words.

So putting the wildcards in the middle of words (as in your first three
examples) is not expected to work
