Hey Ricardo,
I believe that your problem can be solved by using a message queue such as
RabbitMQ with persistent storage.
So instead of sending your messages directly to the Mainframe you should
deliver it your MQ. Afterwards you will need to open a transaction with the
MQ for reading the message and sending it to it's respective destination.
It is important to remove the message (committing the transaction) only
when you verified the Mainframe has received.

BTW, In my environment I have a message queue running on the MF (Websphere
MQ) which simplifies this mechanism.

Best Regards,
Boris K.
