    Most of imap client expect the credential you will use to have a
    personal INBOX, but admin user should not have INBOX.
    Anyway technicaly admin can read user's mailbox, but you have to write
    the IMAP client yourself, or find the good one :-).
    The best way is to create a new user and give him ACL on all mailboxes.
    I thing cyradmin will let you do :

    sam user/*@example.com newuser lrswipkxtecda

    at once
