They just queue, since the MTA always sees the IMS as up and doesn't perform any rerouting.

Does anyone know what the behavior is when one of the IMC servers is down for maintenance. For instance, will messages queued to the downed server eventually be delivered or simply remain queued 'til the server is brought back on-line. Just curious. The reason for the second IMC server is to balance the load of the SMTP traffic that we receive.
