You should expect a RECEIPT after the server successfully processes a
client frame that requests a receipt. Check whether you are requesting a
receipt correctly.

MESSAGE frames are used to convey messages from subscriptions to the
client. You should only get this if you have an active subscription.

If you have found a sequence of frames where MESSAGE and RECEIPT get
mixed up (whether in the presence of transactions or otherwise) then
please supply a transcript.

The source code suggests otherwise:
http://hg.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmq-stomp/file/ecf3243f806a/src/rabbit_stomp_processor.erl#l757

Please post a transcript that demonstrates the problem.

The RabbitMQ STOMP implementation claims support for STOMP 1.0, 1.1 and
1.2. For exceptions see http://www.rabbitmq.com/stomp.html#pear
Clients select the protocol version using the CONNECT frame.
