Are they for different domains? If so, you could use different password
files for each domain. (This is what I do.) And you can also use databases
(instead of flat-text) for the authentication. 

This is pretty easy with Exim. (It is well-documented with examples at the
Exim site.)

You'd also need to have your IMAP server be able to use these
authentication databases (or password files). (I don't use IMAP though --
I use POP3.)
