Basically, I messed with IMAPClient to add in PLAIN authentication as well as SSL and then modified imapsync to authenticate as a cyrus admin (with *that* password), and authorize as the user given from imapsync's input. (Or did I switch up authenticate and authorize - ugh.. I always get those confused) I can then sync as if I were the user without any sort of a problem - I've been using it (and a modified uw-imapd) to migrate users from uw-imapd to cyrus now without needing a user's password.. My code itself is a horrible hackjob I'm embarassed to have actually been responsible for, but I was under pressure and time constraints (and honestly, I had had only a few months of perl experience at that point), I can show you the basic gist if you want. It was pretty straightforward to do, especially if you don't mind making it specific for your environment.
