You could write some script which SELECTs data from the syslog generic
table format and INSERTs it into a custom application specific table.
You could also parse logfiles in the first place and then insert data
into a database. But all this requires manual parsing of log files,
which was explicitly excluded.

All depends on what the post author exactely needs to do. Generic
question, generic answer.

Or are you trying to say that authentication logging to SQL should be a
Dovecot feature?
