 I see.
 So as far as I understood:

 - I set up a new server as LMTP proxy for my two MX 10 to connect to
 - the proxy redirects to my backend imap servers which will then store 
 the mails on my shared storage and the index files to a local disk
 (so I have to enable LMTP additionally to enable this servers to store 
 the mails)
 - I set up a frontend imap server for my users to connect to which will 
 redirect them to the backend servers

 Am I right so far?
