- Listens to Rendezvous or Enterprise Message Service messages being delivered to a subject or destination, which is defined at configuration time.
- Ensures that a proper reply subject, destination, or inbox name exists so that Message Delivery Agent can route the returned data to the appropriate subscriber.
- Forwards messages received to ESB Interface for translation, if necessary.
