That's not correct if the direct exchange in question is the default 
exchange - the default exchange is quite a lot more magical than other 
direct exchanges. Really it can be thought of as a way to express 
"publish to queue" in an API which assumes publishing to exchanges.

So to the OP, I'm afraid you can't do that.

The best you can do would be use the firehose 
http://www.rabbitmq.com/firehose.html to grab the messages as they are 
published. But that will rewrite message headers (not bodies). Other 
than that you'd need to modify the publisher.

Cheers, Simon
