I noted courier-imapd set the modification time of the file where the messages are stored to the time of the topmost "Received" header (for example this happens if I make a copy of message to another folder).

If the IMAP client issues an IMAP COPY in order to copy the message, the mtime is preserved. If the IMAP client issues an IMAP APPEND, the IMAP client is responsible for specifying the time as part of the APPEND command.

I'd like to know if this is required by the maildir format or is a courier-imapd choice and how this information is used by courier-imapd.

mtime is reported as the IMAP INTERNALDATE attribute of the message.
