Is it possible to force subscribtion of a folder to another user by using the admin-user? I couldn't find any info about it in the docs and RFCs.
If you use proxy authentication, then you can authenticate as the admin but authorize as the user, and then subscribe them to the folder.
Could you reference me to some rfc's or other docs on the subject? I tried the PROXYAUTH-command (comes with python imaplib), but it wasn't recognized as a command on my server.
PROXYAUTH is a non standard command: http://www.washington.edu/imap/listarch/2000/msg00215.html (follow the thread).
The right thing to do is use the authenticate method, unfortunately it's not implemented in python imaplib. I don't understand why the imaplib developer(s) implemented the nonstandard command instead of the standard one.
