Hello Marco,

you can Get the information about the Special use Flags within cyradm, e.g.

getmd user/johndoe/Drafts

Or via IMAP (for example telnet , With

A01 LIST "" "*" RETURN (SPECIAL-USE)


You can also Set the Flags within cyradm, but it has to Happen with the res=
pective User who owns the Mailbox:

cyradm --user johndoe --authz cyrus

setmetadata --private user/johndoe/Drafts specialuse "\\Drafts"


HTH,

Alex
