I had a user telling me that they can't login to the Postfix email server via Webmail (RoundCube) and I decided to see if I could locate this issue in the logs and understand if the user was simply using a wrong password credential and or something more serious. More than likely the person is just using a wrong password but in search of this on my logs, I don't understand why Dovecot doesn't log failed login attempts.

Is there a log level or something I am not searching for that will allow me to see failed or invalid logins for Dovecot (IMAP)?

In case of password mismatches, log the passwords and used scheme so the

problem can be debugged. Enabling this also enables auth_debug.

#auth_debug_passwords = no auth_debug_passwords = yes
