I am very new to dovecot and I would like to know if there is a way to configure a user with all the read/write right on all mailbox.
I would like to have a power user (PowerUser) able to reach USER1 mailbox using the following login PowerUser@domain/USER1@domain and the password will be the PowerUser password.
Not yet. But I guess I should one day add support for it. Most SASL mechanisms support it directly without a kludgy username.
I'm not sure about the configuration though. For passwd-file I guess there could be just one global flag which means that the user has access to everyone's mails. For LDAP and SQL I guess the pass_filter/password_query could have a few new %vars to describe the other user. Or maybe there needs to be a separate filter/query for that case. Hmm.
Do you want the poweruser to have access to all mailboxes, or just for the one domain? What passdb are you using?
