[Dovecot] Hostname Based forwarding

Trying to figure out hostname based IMAP proxy forwarding.
I have two mail servers:
mail.example.com
mail.fakedomain.ca
proxy server running dovecat/IMAPS, facing the Internet.
*Both* names are DNS resolve(able), but.., both are the *same IP address.*
For example: Joe configures his email client
username: joe at example.com
IMAP Addr: mail.example.com
For example: Jane configures her email client
username: jane at fakedomain.ca
IMAP Addr: mail.fakedomain.ca
So, now all clients must change their user-name in their email client to
their full email address, because there is a Jane & Joe on "both" servers
and..., dovecot proxies based on 'user name'
Is there a way to proxy based on the host name the client has configured in
his/her email client? (Like Apache VirtualHosts)
This would be ideal, as the clients can then go back to using just their
name as the username.
Thanks
Rick
