did some improvements on the server.

from

dovecot -n
# 2.2.13: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# OS: Linux 3.16.0-6-amd64 x86_64 Debian 8.11

to

# 2.2.27 (c0f36b0): /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
# Pigeonhole version 0.4.16 (fed8554)
# OS: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 x86_64 Debian 9.8

dovecot is working for days without issues, logging is running to one file
/var/log/mail.dovecot

In the logfile appears
2019-04-19 18:53:54 imap-login: Info: Login: user=<office at ourdomain.at>,
method=PLAIN, rip=80.75.xx.35, lip=136.xxx.9.172, mpid=28364, TLS,
session=<vDTC9uSG2opQS/Yj>

All 4 different MUAs Thunderbird are logged in the same way. They are
behind a router, so they having the same remote IP.
So I cant differentiate, which MUA causes which event.

Is there a way, to identify which client raise a special event?
