Okay, as for the dovecot logs, yes there are more. People try to hack it. Also 
from China some. And there are even people who try more than plaintext:

Jan  5 22:25:40 mondschein dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts 
in 5 secs): user=<>, rip=66.240.236.119, lip=[…], TLS: SSL_read() syscall 
failed: Connection reset by peer, TLSv1.2 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-
SHA384 (256/256 bits)
Jan  5 22:25:40 mondschein dovecot: pop3-login: Disconnected (no auth attempts 
in 10 secs): user=<>, rip=66.240.236.119, lip=[…], TLS: Disconnected, TLSv1.2 
with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (256/256 bits)

but then don´t even try to authentificate.

So, of course, you need to be careful about passwords with password based 
services.
