Hi,
I'm using dovecot-2.1.17 on fc18 and wondered if there is some mechanism, perhaps a database, that can store the logins/logouts for each user? I realize there's something already logged to syslog, but I'd like more of a history.
While lastlog is great for users that actually login, my dovecot users don't login, just check email via pop and imap.
Any ideas greatly appreciated. Thanks, Alex
depending what you results you need, use i.e logwatch or take stuff out of syslog at logrotate time with a script
like

using syslog with db, or syslog analyser solutions like graylog2, logtash,
also maybe fine

also you might give stats plugin a try
Awesome, thanks guys. This is much more helpful than just telling me to google it - I was looking for something that was designed to actually do this before developing something that queries mysql from scratch, and this is a good start.
Thanks, Alex
