+Pre-Authenticated Sessions
+==========================
+
+For debugging purpose or to perform IMAP actions on-behalf of an user, you can
+use pre-authenticated sessions. You can do this by simply running:
+
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+And you can start talking IMAP via stdin/stdout. This doesn't change process's
+UID, GID, or get any userdb settings. If you want to emulate a full regular
+login, you can execute
+
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap -u username
+---%<-------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Of course, you may need to run the above command as root if it needs to change
+process's uid/gid.
