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!

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 Regards, Michael -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- M.Menge Tel.: (49) 7071/29-70316 Universität Tübingen Fax.: (49) 7071/29-5912 Zentrum für Datenverarbeitung mail: michael.me...@zdv.uni-tuebingen.de Wächterstraße 76 72074 Tübingen ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/ To Unsubscribe: https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/mailman/listinfo/info-cyrus
