Hello,

I would like to run scripts for deleting unread old mails. But using the imap API, I can only read the good seen status if I logged as the user. Checking as cyrus tells me, that nothing has been read.

Is there an su option for imap?

How can I do that?

You can authenticate as an admin, and authz as the user you wish to see seen state for.

E.g.:

imtest -m DIGEST-MD5 -a cyrus -u dwhite@xxxxxxx localhost

Depending on your environment, the '/vendor/cmu/cyrus/imapd/sharedseen' annotation may be useful. See the 'cyradm' man page for details.
