Does scalix support via IMAP a "Master user" that can access all users mailbox? I want to integrate the Asterisk 1.4 voicemail with Scalix. Basically instead of sending an email for the voicemail it just stores it in IMAP. If you read a message via your nornal phone mail it will be marked as read in your inbox. If you read the messages via the inbox then in the normal phone mail it will be marked as read and also the message waiting indicator of your phone will be turned off. We even support this as an extension to GSM mobile phones with the same exact behaviour.

Here's a little more info:

You can log into any mailbox via IMAP if your user has mboxadmin capabilities. So if you want to use UserA to log into UserB's mailbox, you can do the following:

Username: mboxadmin:UserA:UserB
Password: Password_User_A

Is that the same function as the "master user" feature available with recent versions of dovecot since 1.0-b4. Sorry I am not very familiar with Email systems, IMAP, etc.

Sorry, I can't answer that, not being familiar with the "Master user" feature in dovecot.
