You can use the At Ease security system which comes with the Mac to handle
all this.  Put each environment in each users documents folder and a simple
applescript application to access it. Something like -

tell application "Finder"
        activate
        select file "Eudora Settings" of folder "Email" of folder
"Documents:Tony" of disk "Hard disk"
        open selection
end tell
