Hi there,

I think I may have missed some words in your mail; but if you are talking
about how to proxy_pass to different internal web servers...

 server {
  server_name mail.domain1.com;
  location / {
   proxy_pass http://mail.domain1.com;
  }
 }
 
and have four other similar server{} blocks.

The client machines must resolve mail.domain1.com to this server; this
server's system resolver must resolve mail.domain1.com to the address
that nginx should talk to. (Or you can hard-code things in nginx.conf.)
