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'
