In this way, you can ensure that messages are delivered only when their consumers are ready to process them. The time-to-live attribute lets you adjust the maximum age of the outgoing messages — i.e., the maximum time period for which the messages will be retained by the system. After this time period, the messages will have expired and will no longer be tracked by the JMS server.
