[Dovecot] Reading the index / log files
Dear Dovecot,
I have a user who claims his mail is being lost. I can find the message marked as having been accepted for delivery in the maillog. I am hoping there is a tool which will let me read his IMAP transactions. We are delivering the messages with procmail and storing them as Maildir files.
I read mail on this very same server and process about 500 mails per day. (Its the machine where all of my mail lists are collected.) I use T-bird, he uses LookOut.
My working theory is that he (or his MUA) is somehow deleting some of his mail. Being able to read a log of his IMAP transactions would be most helpful. I see nothing about this in the Wiki.
Regards, Ray

Yes, there is. It's called "rawlog". See the bottom of http://dovecot.org/bugreport.html
That's assuming you're using 1.0beta and not 0.99. For 0.99 you'll need to configure with --with-rawlog and recompile. But better idea would be to not use 0.99 anyway :)
