I played a bit with this when the Connector first came out, but only in a lab scenario. I'd have to check my notes, but I recall that there was good detail on this in the manual, and at the very least, you needed the WSMQ.FORMATHEADERS (or something like that) Data Element in the output link as a column in order to force the Connector to skip the header and get into your actual payload. If you want to parse out the actual header detail, you would do that downstream, but the usual issue is figuring out how to skip over it to read the actual message.
