The 'cyrus' user.

what ever is in 'admins:' in your imapd.conf file

or if you don't want to use that one, you can create a user and add to
'proxy_authname'

that allows you to authenticate as the proxy user but then take on the authorization of a target user.

Is there an admin user that has permissions to access all

I am running IMAPSync between two servers, a couple times a
day for backups. The newest version of IMAPSync allows for
a seperate admin auth user to be specified so that you do
not need to know the password for all users you are
syncing.

If there is no user like this, how would I go about
creating it in Cyrus?

I realize there are security risks to this, but this seems
to be the best solution for us right now.

Thanks,

Kevin
