There is only one "mode", and it's mixed. Depends what you ask for.

Declare queues and exchanges with durable=true. Publish with 
deliveryMode=2 in the properties (depending on the client there may be a 
more intuitive way to do this, e.g. MessageProperties.PERSISTENT_BASIC 
in our Java client).

You can mix persistent and transient messages in the same queue.

Cheers, Simon
