Just wonder what if my mail server went offline for some periods, and the sending party couldn’t deliver.

Will there be any consequences except I don’t get the mail? I tried searching but they all in the perspective of a sender and get a bounce, rather the other way around.

Sure. But you could also just not turn off the mail server for a start ;)

True, but I had the crazy idea of running it on my laptop that goes with me.
