Beside this, the admin user(s) are able to create mailboxes / folders and 
maintaining access rights and quotas including delete folders after setting 
the appropiate rights to it.

It is important to understand the role of the admin user - without i assume it 
would be nearly impossible to set up and maintain a cyrus setup.

You are able to define one or more (space seperated - like: "cyrus: usera 
userb") cyrus imap user names here as admin users (means the users must still 
exist for/in cyrus - the directive just gives "admin rights" to them).


hth a bit,
cheerioh,


Niels.
