[Dovecot] IMAP super user
Hello,
Is there any directive in Dovecot similar to 'imap_admins' of Cyrus?
I plan to migrate from Cyrus to Dovecot. But I need a admin user which is able to obtain information about the quotas of common users.
Thank you.

Probably you're looking for things related to auth_master or master.
passdb passwd-file {
master = yes
args = /etc/vmail/master-users
}Or search the Wiki for AuthDatabase.PasswdFile

You could create a master user/password that can log in as other users: http://wiki.dovecot.org/Authentication/MasterUsers

With v1.x the only good way is to log in as other users. Or possibly use http://wiki.dovecot.org/PreAuth
With v2.0 you can do this really easily: doveadm quota get -A
Another possibility is to use dict quota with SQL backend and just do a SELECT from table.

Or did you mean to get other peoples' quota via IMAP protocol? There's kind of a support for this, but not really. If user is marked "admin", then GETQUOTAROOT lists all the users' quotas who have shared mailboxes visible to the the user. But there's currently no way to set a user to become admin without modifying sources.
