Reliable publication requires use of either tx or confirm mode. The 
latter is far more efficient. The two recommendations I posted for 
handling your use case without resorting to timers or counters - one 
using tx and one using confirm - were based on the assumption that your 
use of tx was solely in order to ensure guaranteed message transmission. 
That does indeed appear to be the case.
