             Summary: Handle IMAP authentication delegation
                 Key: JAMES-1930
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-1930
             Project: James Server
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: IMAPServer
            Reporter: Raphaël Ouazana


IMAP allows to delegate authentication through the AUTHENTICATION PLAIN 
mechanism.
An admin user can authenticate with its password and then can be authorized to 
be an other user.
See RFC 4616.
The protocol part of this RFC is already handled into IMAP, but we need a way 
to define an administrator into the configuration and to check that permission.
