It does not need to. To be precise, it does lock it, but only when it really needs to modify it. Normally, the locking interval is very short, so you have little chance to detect the lock file presence. In fact, one of the huge advantages of IMAP protocol over POP is that the former does not require mailbox locking through the session.
