I don't know. I haven't tinkered with login_log_format_elements or anything related in dovecot.conf.

By the way, that appears in the log as two characters, "^" and "I", not Control-I.

Here's my /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf with all the comments stripped out:

protocols = imap imaps ssl_disable = yes disable_plaintext_auth = no log_timestamp = "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S " mail_extra_groups = mail default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%d/%n

protocol imap { }

protocol pop3 { }

auth_verbose = yes auth_debug = yes auth_debug_passwords = yes

auth default { mechanisms = plain login

passdb sql { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf }

userdb static { args = uid=5000 gid=5000 home=/var/mail/%d/%n }

user = root }

plugin { }

Here's my /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf:

driver = mysql connect = host=localhost port=3306 user=dovecot password=xxxx dbname=maildb default_pass_scheme = PLAIN password_query = SELECT password FROM users WHERE id = '%u'
