Migrated a 1.0.2 server to 2.0.16 (same old box).

What do the logs say when a client logs in? The debug logs should tell
everything.
Yes, but my problem is that this is a production server with a really fast
increasing log, so (in my limited skill of dovecot), I have some
difficult to select interesting rows from it (I hoped this period was less
busy, but my customers don't have the same idea ... ;-) )
Thanks for hints in selecting interesting rows.

You should do this and replace your old dovecot.conf with the new generated one.
userdb {
driver = passwd
}
userdb {
driver = passwd
}
Also remove the duplicated userdb passwd.
This was an experimental configs manually derived from old 1.0.2 (mix of
old working and new).
If I replace it with a new config (below), authentication seems Ok, but
fetch of mail from client is very slow (compared with old 1.0.2).
Thanks for your very fast support ;-)
