Nginx as mail proxy: different domains with different certs

I set up nginx as mail proxy, and it works for one domain, but won't work
when I try to serve more that one domain each with different SSL
certificate. Are there any way I can archive that, since nginx as mail proxy
it quite good and seems to be good solution.
My fail is that I expected from mail servers the same I used to see in http
server. Say, I tried to write this:
mail {
...
server {
listen 25;
protocol smtp;
server_name mail.domain1.com;
ssl_certificate mail.domain1.com.fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key mail.domain1.com.key.pem;
starttls on;
proxy on;
xclient off;
}
server {
listen 25;
protocol smtp;
server_name mail.domain2.com;
ssl_certificate mail.domain2.com.fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key mail.domain2.com.key.pem;
starttls on;
proxy on;
xclient off;
}
...
}
I expected nginx will choose right 'server' block based on server_name
(which was wrong assumption) and then will use ssl certificate set in that
server block.
I do understand I can set up LE certs with many hostnames included but say
story is that domain list is too big to be included in single cert so I have
to use more that one server block anyway.
Please advice!
