You can do this if you have a userdb as passwd-file (or mysql, I think)
where you can store the mail_env for that user, something like:
pop3user1:x:1234:1234:::/home/pop3user1::mbox:/var/mail/pop3user1
imapuser1:x:1235:1235:::/home/imapuser1::maildir:/home/imapuser1/mail
note that passdb doesn't need to be the same (we use LDAP via PAM, and
build our userdb file overnight from NIS).
Best Wishes,
Chris
