I do that with two Debian 10 servers - Postfix, PostfixAdmin, Dovecot, MariaDB, Keepalived.
MariaDB in active/active mode, each node accesses the DB via localhost, Dovecot with dsync replication, Keepalived for a virtual ip.
The MX record points to each node, DNS A/PTR records for the clients pointing to the virtual ip.
I separated Roundcube from the mail server and have them running on two separate VM's as i didn't want to expose the webserver on the mail servers
to the Internet.
There is also keepalived on the two webmail VM's for a virtual ip where the users connect to.
Both Roundcube instances connect to the DB or SMTP/LDAP server via the virtual ip there.
Working since almost two years without issues.
