Organize your user/pass information as tab delimitered rows:
user1 pass1
user2 pass2
Then:
#!/usr/bin/zsh
USER_FILE=/home/j/joe/users-list.txt
APP="imap"
DOM="Machine.your.domain.com"
cat ${USER_FILE} | while read line; do
username=`awk '{print $1}'`
password=`awk '{print $2}'`
echo "${password}" | saslpasswd2 -c -p -a ${APP} -u ${DOM} "${username}"
done
Nix.
