+# NAME
+
+CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID - authorization identity (identity to act as)
+
+# SYNOPSIS
+
+~~~c
+#include <curl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_SASL_AUTHZID, char *authzid);
+~~~
+
+# DESCRIPTION
+
+Pass a char pointer as parameter, which should be pointing to the
+null-terminated authorization identity (*authzid*) for the transfer. Only
+applicable to the PLAIN SASL authentication mechanism where it is optional.
+
+When not specified only the authentication identity (*authcid*) as
+specified by the username is sent to the server, along with the password. The
+server derives a *authzid* from the *authcid* when not provided, which
+it then uses internally.
+
+When the *authzid* is specified, the use of which is server dependent, it
+can be used to access another user's inbox, that the user has been granted
+access to, or a shared mailbox for example.
