|  From the installation docs: "everyday users should not be

Since i'm using shadow as my SASL auth mechanism, how do I do this
without creating a user?

Having a user/password defined is different from creating an INBOX for that user. You can put 'foo' and foo's password in /etc/shadow, just don't create 'user.foo' via cyradm if you define 'foo' as an admin in imapd.conf.
