In Gnus 5.10.3 (current CVS), you can do the following:

,----[ ~/.authinfo ]
| machine fm  login some-long-login@fm.invalid
| machine bar login some-long-login@bar.invalid
`----

,----[ From `G e' buffers: ]
| ;;; Editing the select method for `nnimap+fm:INBOX'.
| (nnimap "fm"
|       (nnimap-address "fastmail.fm")
|       (nnimap-directory "~/Mail/var/nnimap/fm"))
|--------------------
| ;;; Editing the select method for `nnimap+bar:INBOX'.
| (nnimap "bar"
|       (nnimap-address "fastmail.fm")
|       (nnimap-directory "~/Mail/var/nnimap/bar"))
`----

If you don't like to try the CVS version or wait for 5.10.3, you 
may use two different `nnimap-authinfo-file's.

Bye, Reiner.
