Hi Matthias,<div><br></div><div>yes, I finally decided to handle the reordering in the consumer. Anyway, thank you for the 'redelivered' flag hint, it could be very helpful.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>

My problem here is that, in the architecture I have to implement, I could receive a lot of messages in a very short time, so if the broker re-enqueues not acknowledged ones they can end up to be re-sent thousands of messages later. Which means that there's no way I can do the re-ordering on the consumer side.<br>

Could you recover ordering by the producer sticking a sequence number into the message? That should work as long as all the produced messages end up in the same queue.<br>
<br>
Also note that rabbit sets the 'redelivered' flag on deliveries that have been sent to a consumer for the second and subsequent times. This too helps in recovering order.<br>
