Rather than using telnet, use imtest which can do the proxy authentication that you need. Do something like this: imtest -t '' -m plain -a cyrus -u <user> <servername> When prompted, enter the password for cyrus (alternatively, use the -w option to put the password on the command line). This will use the PLAIN mechanism under a TLS layer to authenticate you as cyrus, but authorize you as whatever user that you want to have subscribe to mailboxes. -- Kenneth Murchison Systems Programmer Carnegie Mellon University ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
