All message bodies are compressed with gzip, and you will need to un-compress them when you receive them.

Messages are delivered on per-user queues.  Your queue name is on the 'My Feeds' screen, and you should subscribe to the queue as <code>/queue/&lt;queue-name&gt;</code>.

There is no need to use a durable subscription, as you will receive each message on your own queue exactly once, and messages will be queued for a total of five minutes after you disconnect.
