I was asked about this at the MDC in Atlanta. How do multiple instances of services not pickup the same messages when checking a single queue. According to the documentation that I have read, once a message is read, the service has 30 seconds(by default) to remove the message from the queue. If the service removes the message than everything is golden. If the service does not remove the message from the queue, than the message is put back into the queue. This is referred to as leasing in the documentation.
