Will my instant message be delivered if the recipient is not signed in to Skype?

It might be possible for your message to reach a contact immediately if they are offline (if you are using a cloud-enabled device) and the other party is not. The message is saved locally (on your device) in the event that neither party has a cloud-enabled device, and it will be delivered to the recipient as soon as you are both online at the same time as the recipient.
