I was looking for the same thing earlier this month.

I'm not on v1.2.4 but that should have the mail_log_prefix option which lets you add something to the start of every log line, including logouts. I use that to put the username and remote IP in every log line. It has helped out quite a bit with troubleshooting.

  i'd like to make a simple feature request on dovecot ....

i'm using v1.2.4 (latest one) and IMAP logout message, by default is:

Sep 18 14:26:27 correio dovecot: IMAP([email protected]): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=384/932222

  the message can be a little customized with:

# IMAP logout format string:
#  %i - total number of bytes read from client
# %o - total number of bytes sent to client imap_logout_format = bytes=%i/%o


The remote IP address, the IP which the user is coming from, can only be seen on the login message:

Sep 14 09:09:12 correio dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<[email protected] >, method=PLAIN, rip=187.6.xx.xx, lip=200.140.yy.yy

the feature request is that the remote IP address could be added on the Logout message too, that would make much easier to watch connections from some specific user and from some specific ip address, regarding traffic of the connection. For example, something like:

Sep 18 14:26:27 correio dovecot: IMAP([email protected]): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=384/932222, rip=187.6.xx.xx, lip=200.140.yy.yy
