====== RabbitMQ - TicketerEmailFailedDelivery ======

Author: Aaron Mooney

The interface for the RabbitMQ email queues can be found at loadbalancer:15672 -> `http://extlb.ext:15672` and the credentials can be found in pwsafe.
Once logged in you will be presented with this interface. Click on the **Queues** tab.

Then navigate to the **tickter.dead.email.queue**
{{ :support:dead_email_queue.png?nolink |}}

Scroll down the page and click on the **Get Messages** tab, then click the **Get Message(s)** button.
**Make sure to use the requeue option so that messages are not deleted.**

Copy the payload field into your clipboard and navigate back to the queues tab and click on the **ticketer.email.queue**

Paste the payload into the payload field of the **Publish Message** tab and set the delivery mode to **Persistent**, this is because the queue is durable and makes the message get written to disk.

Before hitting **Publish Message** check to see if the email fields are malformed as this is likely the reason they appear in the dead queue.

An example of a malformed recipient list is **"recipAddrs":["correct@email.com"," incorrect@email.com; incorrect@email.com”]**.

The second email has a leading space, is missing a closing quote and has a semicolon as a separator and instead of a comma. The third is missing an opening double quote.
Fix any discrepancies you see then publish the message.


Finally, once the messages have been re-published, return to the **tickter.dead.email.queue** and click **Purge** to clear the dead queue and clear the alert.
