Did you read /usr/share/doc/dovecot-core/{NEWS,README}.Debian.gz?

Please don't copy and paste stuff from files in Dovecot's configuration
directory. Always provide the output generated by `doveconf -n`.
,--[ doveadm-log(1) ]--
| COMMANDS
| log find
| doveadm log find [directory]

| The log find command is used to show the location of the log files,
to which dovecot(1) sends its log messages. If dovecot(1) logs its messages

log files.
