It depends on your Problem. If these virtual domains are all  
subdomains of one domain you can use wildcard domains. If there are  
few virtual domains and they don't change to often you can try the  
subject alternate name attribute.

For https the Problem is solved by server name indication. But the server
and client have to support this. And it would suprise me if there are
any IMAP server or clients that support server name indication.
