imap impersonate

[Gabriele Bulfon]

Thanks,
my imapd.conf has already :
admins: sonicle
sasl_mech_list: plain
if I try an imap session with:
A01 AUTHENTICATE PLAIN
+
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
where xxxxxxx comes from 'echo -en "\0sonicle\0pass" | base64' , I get authenticated as sonicle.
Now, how do I switch to the desired user?
Once I understand how to do it via imap protocol, I need to replicate it in java code through:
store.connect(host,143,user,pass);
Thanks in advance!
Gabriele

Hi,
is there any mechanism with Cyrus imap to impersonate another user?
I've seen other imap servers scenarios where one may use plain
authentication and sending user as mailboxuser plus a separator plus
adminuser and use only adminpassword, to get access to the
mailboxuser as is (dovecot, exchange).
Anything like this in Cyrus?
Gabriele
Cyrus can use the PLAIN mech to allow admin access as the user.
You need to add plain to sasl_mech_list in imapd.conf
And the "admin" account has to be listed in admins or proxyservers
in imapd.conf

Michael
