the /bin/nologin would be sufficient to _not_ enable them to have shell
access.. They can try to login, the username and password _will_ be correct
but they will just get kicked out..

as for the home directory, they don't really need it as a place to store
mails. As you mentioned, /var/spool/mail/username would be all that's
needed.

Not sure about Imap..

Hope it helps

Chris
