it works with imap connections, so I assumed it also would do it for lmtp.

using only one director and backend would be fine for tests purposes (as it was with imap and not loops were formed)

What I don't understand is why director insists in providing a proxy host from passdb when all it needs to do is pick the ones in director_mail_servers ¿?
