Depends on usage. I've wanted both.

Thanks for reminding that rawlog functionality really doesn't belong to 
Dovecot. Rawlogging should be a separate binary which is executed by 
modifying mail_executable setting in config file. Something like:

protocol imap {
   mail_executable = /usr/local/bin/rawlog 
/usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap
}

What I'm not sure about is if I should distribute rawlog binary with 
Dovecot or not :)
