The problem with configuring multiple certificates in cyrus ist that at the
moment it would require using one IP for each domain and one imap(s)/pop(s)
service listeing only on this IP and configuring the certs and keys for
each of these service names


In /etc/cyrus.conf Services you would have

doaminaimap cmd="imapd" listen="ipa:imap"
domainaimaps cmd="imapd -s " listen="ipa:imaps"
domainbimap cmd="imapd" listen="ipb:imap"
domainbimaps cmd="imapd -s " listen="ipb:imaps"
...
domainzimap cmd="imapd" listen="ipz:imap"
domainzimaps cmd="imapd -s " listen="ipz:imaps"

and in /etc/imapd.conf

domainaimap_tls_cert_file: /var/lib/imap/domaina.pem
domainaimap_tls_key_file: /var/lib/imap/domaina.pem
domainaimaps_tls_cert_file: /var/lib/imap/domaina.pem
domainaimaps_tls_key_file: /var/lib/imap/domaina.pem
domainbimap_tls_cert_file: /var/lib/imap/domainb.pem
domainbimap_tls_key_file: /var/lib/imap/domainb.pem
domainbimaps_tls_cert_file: /var/lib/imap/domainb.pem
domainbimaps_tls_key_file: /var/lib/imap/domainb.pem
...
domainzimap_tls_cert_file: /var/lib/imap/domainz.pem
domainzimap_tls_key_file: /var/lib/imap/domainz.pem
domainzimaps_tls_cert_file: /var/lib/imap/domainz.pem
domainzimaps_tls_key_file: /var/lib/imap/domainz.pem

There is the SSL Extension SNI  
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication
which would allow to using multiple certificates on one IP, but as far  
as i know
that is only implemented by webservers and browsers, but i could be wrong and
that the mail clients will use it because the ssl libraries use this  
extensions
by default.

A few years ago i have seen thread about SNI on this list
https://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/2014-July/thread.html#37461

Depending on how static your list of domains is you could also use one  
certificate
with 40 SubjectAlternativNames
