Hi Fabio,

You can set the most significant bit of the protocol version number to
a 1 to indicate to the broker that you are a bridge. This prevents
your own messages being returned to you and also means that the
message retained status is propagated to you.

However, I would suggest that you reconsider your application design
instead. Perhaps your client should be listening on a different topic
than the one it is publishing on. The above behaviour is not part of
the MQTT spec and so should not be relied on being in all server
implementations.

Regards,

Roger
