The default pop3 log is enough for me:

Sep  9 05:46:37 server1 dovecot: POP3(user1): Disconnected: Logged out 
top=0/0, retr=1/41706, del=1/1, size=41685

This means that user1 received 1 message, deleted 1 message, and total 
downloaded size was 41685. Don't you have a similar line for your user?
