What happens to it,does the server delete the packet??

The server does not usually "delete the packet". If the recipient server is temporarily unavailable, the sending server normally queues the message and retries for hours or even days before giving up. Only after repeated failures will it usually generate a bounce message (non-delivery report) back to the sender.
The usual reasons for non-delivery of email include:
- Spam/junk filtering (most common)
- Silent filtering or blocking
- The receiving server rejected it because of authentication issues
- The email address was incorrect.
- The recipient's mailbox was full.
