  SMTP is used not only from you to the outgoing server, but also
*between* servers.  I occasionally get a warning back from some SMTP
server that it has been unable to deliver a message (usually to a
destination POP2/POP3/IMAP server) for a while, and will keep trying
for a while longer.
  The problem that causes your POP server to be down *may* threaten
messages that have already reached it.  But unless it's down for a
week or more, messages posted after it went down should just queue up
until it comes back on line.
