[Dovecot] simple feature request: IMAP logged out message

[David Warden]

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.
