Cyrus admin user that can read messge on all accounts?

[Patrick Radtke]

The 'cyrus' user.

what ever is in 'admins:' in your imapd.conf file

or if you don't want to use that one, you can create a user and add to
'proxy_authname'

that allows you to authenticate as the proxy user but then take on  
the authorization of a target user.
