[Dovecot] One dovecot, multiple addresses

There was a thread in February called "One dovecot, multiple domains" that
I'd like to follow up on...

I have a similar need; a hosted system with a couple IP aliases currently
running dovecot for users at imap.domain1.com on one of those addresses.
Now I need to also make it accessible via the name imap.domain2.com on a
different address. Both "hosts" require SSL certs. They'll be using the
same user auth
source and have access to the same mailspools (although certain users will
access theirs through domain1 and others through domain2).

It sounds like dovecot doesn't support this sort of ip-based virtual
hosting scheme right now. Is it possible to just configure two separate
instances of the server, one bound to each virtual interface with their
separate certs? Or are there issues with this poor man approach
(contention, etc)?

TIA; nap.
