Proxy Authentication to an IMAP Store

843830Apr 3 2007 — edited Aug 14 2009

Hello,

We run Sun Messaging Server 6.2. I have successfully configured and implemented proxy authentication from our portal mail module to the web mail server(using the C Auth SDK). Now, I need to implement proxy authentication for the IMAP side of things. I use JavaMail for the IMAP connection to display message counts in our mail portal module. Simply put, I need to specify an IMAP store (a user's mailbox) and connect to it using administrator credentials. Looking at things briefly, it did not appear to be straight forward. If anyone has advice or experience implementing this approach using JavaMail, I'd greatly appreciate some pointers.

Cheers.
