> 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.
