If I remember correctly, one destructive get for a msgid/correlid combination that cannot exist will purge all expired messages.

I thought browse would work on any version. We use MQSeries v5.1 for HP-UX 11.x. If browse does not work how do we clean up unexpired messages? Doing a destructive read and putting the unexpired messages back seems extreme. 2) Sending system send bunch of messages with expiration. The destination system is down so messages back up in transmission queue and expiration time is exceeded. When the destination is back on-line, does the MCA remove the expired messages or does it pass them down the channel. I expect the MCA, doing a destructive read, will result in the expired messages being deleted.
