> ## Why
> Today, James requires management API rights to list mail queues.
> Why?
>  - List of mailqueues can be heterogeneous across the cluster (especially in 
> case of specialized instances)
>  - AMQP client do not support listing mail queues
>  - Thus we ended up relying on the management plugin.
> This, of course, is a security violation, as it might lead to right 
> escalation, and might affect other tenants co-hosted on RabbitMQ.
> ## Definition of Done
>  - [ ] James no longer require administrative rights
>  - [ ] An ADR needs to be written about this
> ## How
> As deleting a mail queue is not a supporting implementation, we can rely on a 
> `Set<String>` cassandra table containing the names of the mail queues in use.
> James nodes can then rely on this to know if a mail queue is used or not.
> Eventual consistency will be achieved between this cassandra view and the 
> actual rabbitMQ content:
>  - Register a created queue in Cassandra first, then create it in Rabbit.
>  - Given a cassandra registered queue, not existing in rabbit, a james node 
> restart configured with that queue will create the queue in rabbit.
