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/[EMAIL PROTECTED] newuser lrswipkxtecda

at once
