Depending on how you define "correct".  Deliveries won't be affected by
atime setting in any way; telling if you have new mail _may_ be affected,
but it would be at worst annoying (shell / MUA claims you have new mail
while you don't, and even that it's only for their startup, once the shell
is running it won't rely on atime).

Cheers,
