Description

When deleting messages via JMX a more accurate status should be returned. If a message cant be deleted (eg because it has been acquired by a client) currently no error is raised and the method 'succeeds'. It should instead return some indication of the true outcome, eg by either throwing an exception indicating the message(s) which cant be deleted or by returning the number of or a list of the messages which were actually deleted.
