Filter out dovecot "Logged out" messages

[Wowbagger]

Binary package hint: logwatch

The current parsing scripts for Dovecot don't filter out the routine "Logged out" messages - as a result the Logwatch report gets full of "chaff" messages.

The messages that need to be filtered out are all of the form
