Alternatives to RabbitMQ for .NET centric shop?

I need a reliable messaging solution. It looks like RabbitMQ would address the needs of my application. However, my environment is not well suited to deploying Erlang and Mnesia on a server. It is an enterprise environment and it is a huge battle of red tape to get "non-standard" pieces like that deployed. I would prefer to find a reliable messaging framework similar to RabbitMQ, but built on .NET. Storing messages in Oracle and/or SQL Server would be a bonus. Anything like that out there?

I'm aware of NServiceBus, but I don't think this is focused on reliable messaging as much as RabbitMQ is.

There is also ActiveMQ. It's geared more for Java, but you can get it working in .NET, I have a large ActiveMQ deployment all using C#, but I do plan to convert it to RabbitMQ.

I would use NServiceBus (you already mentioned) or MassTransit - both use MSMQ.

Both are focussed on reliable messaging, and have been known to be used in many critical applications.

How about good old msmq? It's standard component on windows server systems, has WCF bindings... so I guess this is exactly what you are looking for. Though, afaik it has its own filesystem-based message storage, and doesn't support sql server or oracle for that purpose.
