I am using .net client to post mesages to MQ server which is hosted on Unix. It is added some control character before the messages. Like below ^CD

The Queue connection is through SSL Table channel connection. The code i am using is MQQueueManager queueManager = new MQQueueManager ; int openOptions = MQC.MQOO_OUTPUT + MQC.MQOO_BIND_NOT_FIXED + MQC.MQOO_FAIL_IF_QUIESCING; MQQueue Queue = queueManager.AccessQueue("TestQueue", openOptions); MQMessage queueMessage = new MQMessage(); queueMessage.WriteUTF("");

MQPutMessageOptions MessageOptions = new MQPutMessageOptions(); Queue.Put(queueMessage, MessageOptions);

please let me know what cause this special chars
