A quick look at pam_mkhomedir shows:

% nm pam_mkhomedir.so  | grep pam_sm
00001500 T pam_sm_close_session
00001410 T pam_sm_open_session

A quick look at the imapd source (from pine4.33) shows:

% find imap -name \*.c | xargs grep pam_open
<no output>

Since imapd never calls pam_open_session(), libpam never calls
pam_sm_open_session(), and as such pam_mkhomedir is never called.
