You do not need to address your emails to rabbitmq-discuss-owner@ or
rabbitmq-discuss-request@ when posting to the discussion list.
rabbitmq-discuss@ is sufficient.

I'm confused as to what you're doing.

amqp_destroy_connection() should be called for every
amqp_connection_state_t you create with amqp_new_connection(). It doesn't
matter if you're able to successfully connect to the broker or not, you
will need to destroy the amqp_connection_state_t object.
