I think that the slide is just one example of a scenario ,very complex. 
In real world,
unless you do not have to segment users (some users use Exchange, others 
use Dovecot, but all user use imap.corporate.com, the proxy, for login) 
you don't need a Proxy in front of Director.

Load balancer is only for HA.
