I don't remember exactly how I have used it. It was to copy mailboxes from cyrus-imapd to another system using imapsync. It was something like - create a proxy user, in our case called "proxy". I don't remember whether it needed a mailbox or maybe we only created it in the auth db. - add "proxyservers: proxy" to imapd.conf Now, with an IMAP client, you can authenticate as user "proxy" with proxy's password but then login as the target user. That means you don't need the target users password. With imapsync that was done using imapsync --authuser1 proxy --user1 buddy ... I hope someone on the list can tell you how to do this in perl.
