There is no way I'm going to sacrifice my channels by not having a DLQ, when some nondeliverable message comes across the channel without a disposition value of MQRO_DISCARD_MSG. My sleep at night is to important to me and the health of the channels is far to important to the rest of the business applications depending on them, to let a channel stop over a non-deliverable message from an application that is not designed to understand the default DLQ processing.
I would work it out between the expectations of this application/product and the expectations/rules of your DLQHandler. But don't lose the DLQ itself.

We are looking into a product that uses MQSeries as a transport layer. The tool assumes there is no DLQ. What happens is it sets the Exception Report option so if the remote queue if full, it returns an exception to the send portion of the tool. So if there is a DLQ and a DLQHandler running, the message may be recycled to the original queue and processed but the sending side throws an exception.
