Sharing Mailbox between users using IMAP

Hi list!

I have an account (let's say info at mydomain.com) that should be read  
from more people.
These people does NOT have an account on the server.
Currently info at mydomain.com is a forward to their addresses, but of  
course this solution has a huge problem: if info@ receives spam that  
the server does not recognize, the server forwards spam...

Now I want to solve this problem and I had the idea to change info@  
from "forward" to "local account".
Then, I can read the E-Mails via IMAP.

Now the question: if I have 5-6 people accessing the account via IMAP,  
has Dovecot (2.2.13 from Debian repositories) problems?

Is there other solution, if the users don't want to have an account on  
the server?

Thanks a lot for your suggestion
