Re: cyradm not showing metadata if logged as admin

Hi Olaf,

I think this is expected behaviour.   Mailbox annotations in the
"/private/" namespace are per user -- such that if multiple users have
access to the same mailbox, they can each have their own annotations on
it.

So, when you log into this account with IMAP and set /private/specialuse
annotations, you're setting those annotations for the user you logged in
as.

When you log in as an admin and look at the same mailbox, you're seeing
the admin's annotations (which you haven't set any), not the user's.

I don't know if there's an effective way to do what you want.  Can
anyone else chime in?

Cheers,

ellie
