Will a recipient who has iMessage disabled receive an iMessage when enabled?

[bellshell]

If someone's imessage is off, if they receive an imessage during that time, do the imessages get queued and for how long? The SMS option was off by the sender.

If the Send As SMS option is off, then the sent iMessage will get queued until the recipient is able to retrieve it, at least for a period of time.
