It seems that whenever an error is caught by onException, regardless whether
handled is set to true or false, the failed message would not be written to
the dead letter queue.  Here is a sample project to demonstrate this:

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans";
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
       xmlns:camel="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring";
       xsi:schemaLocation="
       http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans
http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans/spring-beans.xsd
       http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring
http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring/camel-spring.xsd";>

  <bean id="throwException"
class="com.pci.FileDeadChannel.ThrowExceptionProcessor" />
  
  <camel:camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring";
trace="true" handleFault="true" errorHandlerRef="dlc">

                <camel:errorHandler id="dlc" type="DeadLetterChannel"
deadLetterUri="file:log/dead">
                        <camel:redeliveryPolicy maximumRedeliveries="2" 
redeliveryDelay="5000"
retryAttemptedLogLevel="WARN"
                                logHandled="true"/>
                </camel:errorHandler>

                <camel:onException>
                        
<camel:exception>java.lang.RuntimeException</camel:exception>
                        <camel:redeliveryPolicy maximumRedeliveries="3" 
redeliveryDelay="10000"
/>
                        
<camel:handled><camel:constant>false</camel:constant></camel:handled>
                        <camel:log message="***** onException: 
ValidationException *****" />
                </camel:onException> 
  
    <camel:route>
      <camel:from uri="file:src/data?noop=true"/>
      <camel:process ref="throwException" />
    </camel:route>
  </camel:camelContext>

</beans>

Is this correct?  Is there a way to add some configuration in the
onException to still use the dead letter queue?  

Thanks!
