My guess would be the Cyrus::IMAP Perl module as a place to start.

Thanks for the pointer, though I'm not really sure how to implement using Cyrus::IMAP (I thought of using one of the IMAP perl modules in CPAN, deciding which one).
One common major issue with what I'm trying to do is having the IMAP agent scripts (typically run in crontab by user cyrus) access each user's mailbox, without knowing that user's password. How do I go about doing this? I've activated ACLs on each mailbox to allow full access by user cyrus, but don't know how to actually access them via IMAP.
You can have the admin proxy as the user (using the admins password, but act on behalf of the user), by using a SASL mechanism which allows proxying (PLAIN, DIGEST-MD5). You will authenticate as the admin (using the admin's userid and password), but authorize as the user (using the user's userid).
