Oh, one more alternative to this I thought of:

Even though these people don't read logs, they probably restart Dovecot
manually at some point (if they don't give up immediately). Dovecot
could track if all auth attempts in its existence have failed
(e.g. /var/lib/dovecot/auth-fails exists) and if so, when starting up
it'd write something like:

If you have trouble with authentication failures, enable
auth_debug_passwords setting. http://wiki.dovecot.org/WhyDoesItNotWork
