It may not be silent - you may find that an error reply is generated
and returned to the sender.

But yes, this sounds like correct behavior. If you limit the buffer
then the message can't be buffered and the only option is to fail the
delivery. You have to either make the buffer large enough it's never
exceeded, or you have to handle buffer-full errors.
