Easy. When you want to look at another user's mail, just modify the permissions on their mailbox. You can do this with cyradm like so:

  sam user.foo adminuser all

We use a perl script that does this recursively for each folder that belongs to a specify user, and a second script that recursively removes the permission when we are finished.

After granting these permissions, you'll see the user's mailbox in your IMAP namespace as "Other Users.foo".
Ok, that's clear for me, but since i am going to have a huge mailstore i don't like the idea of the person having to subscribe to each user mailbox, or modifying the user mailbox acl each time the person want to access data, so as an easy way i was thinking on using sasl as a helper, if that's not possible what i am thinking to create at first time, is that when the admin (which is really a supervisor with just read privilegies) wants to see others users mailbox, it just open a web application, that ask for their password, if validation went ok, then ask for the mailbox he wants to see and recurisvely change permissions, this way the Supervisor can see what others user have into their mailbox without using cyradm command line.
