Typical posterior distributions for a saturated line, a non-detection, and a line which can be used to derive a column density accurately. In the case of a non-detection, the posterior distribution is completely determined by the prior PDF, which is expected in case there is in the data no information about the assumed model, in this case a Voigt-profile-like absorption.
