Rabbit mQ messages moving from ready queue to Unack queue - rabbitmq

Question

I have a separate publisher and consumer.I start publisher and publish messages.Now i start consumer and problem is that the messages move from ready queue to unack queue marking the messages as redelivered which i want to avoid.So what i want is it should be marked as redelivered only if i send ack and not on consumer restart or start
Configuration :
#Bean
public org.springframework.amqp.rabbit.connection.Connection mqConnection() {
CloudFactory cloudFactory = new CloudFactory();
Cloud cloud = cloudFactory.getCloud();
return cloud.getServiceConnector("mqservicename", ConnectionFactory.class,
null).createConnection();
}
#Bean
public StatefulRetryOperationsInterceptor interceptor() {
return RetryInterceptorBuilder.stateful().retryOperations(retryTemplate()).recoverer(new RejectAndDontRequeueRecoverer())
.build();
}
#Bean
public SimpleMessageListenerContainer listenerContainer() {
SimpleMessageListenerContainer container = new SimpleMessageListenerContainer();
container.setMessageListener(new MessageListenerAdapter());
container.setAdviceChain(new Advice[] {
interceptor()
});
return container;
}
#Bean
public RetryTemplate retryTemplate(){
Map map=new HashMap<Class<? extends Throwable>, Boolean>();
map.put(CustomException.class, true);
RetryTemplate retryTemplate=new RetryTemplate();
retryTemplate.setRetryPolicy(new SimpleRetryPolicy(3,map));
return retryTemplate;
}

If you are using Spring AMQP, you need to show your configuration when asking questions like this.
If you set the ack mode to MANUAL, you are responsible for the acks. Read the documentation. For AUTO ackmode, the container will ack the message when the listener returns normally.
