Hi
You can use onException to define the customize the redelivery options
Its handled = false by default.
onException(Exception.class).maximumRedeliveries(10).delayPattern("...").handled(false));
And you can have it detour the message so you can send to a bean or
whatever to send that failure email.

You can also use onCompletion for that and have a route when the on
completion failed.
