Hi Timo
Thanks very much, hadn't finished my morning coffee and already a patch :)
The patch does the trick:
- My dovecot.conf for the proxy: ... login_log_format_elements = pid=%p user=%u method=%m rsock=%r:%b lsock=%l:%a proto=%s %c login_log_format = MYPROXY %s %$: ...
- gives me, via syslog: Aug 14 10:14:03 withnail dovecot: imap-login: MYPROXY pid=6516, user=pgamble@abc.co.za, method=PLAIN, rsock=127.0.0.1:48157, lsock=127.0.0.1:1143, proto=IMAP, secured proxy(pgamble@abc.co.za): started proxying to 127.0.0.1:143/pgamble*master: Aug 14 10:26:02 withnail dovecot: pop3-login: MYPROXY pid=6514, user=pgamble@abc.co.za, method=PLAIN, rsock=127.0.0.1:55991, lsock=127.0.0.1:1110, proto=POP3, secured proxy(pgamble@abc.co.za): started proxying to 127.0.0.1:110/pgamble*master:
This is just on a dev box, hence the odd IP's, log format, etc.
I'm using "master authentication" for the backend auth and so the the master user and separator character are imbedded in the backend user, i.e. "client->proxy_user", ("pgamble*master" above) and it would be convenient to have them available separately, but I can live with it as-is.
So...great stuff, thanks very much! What is your approach with regards to incorporating these kinds of patches (in response to ad-hoc user requests) into your main development tree? It would obviously be nice to know that this will be incorporated at some point... Would it be feasible to add a "config variable" for this (along the lines of %u, %p, %s, etc, etc)?
Regards, Paul Gamble

Is it possible for a Dovecot proxy's login process (IMAP and POP3) to include the "destuser", i.e. the uid used to authenticate to the backend IMAP/POP3 server, in its logging? "%u" gives me the uid provided by the client of course, but it would useful for my purposes to catch the
"destuser" in the same log line.
Could you try if this patch works: http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-1.1/raw-rev/5d0406541434
