I am currently setting up a MURDER environement with one frontend server and one backend server to start with. The MTA (Sendmail) for incoming mails (MX) will be running on the frontend server. Now my question: where should the MTA send the incoming mails ? Should the MTA send it to the frontend server via LMTPProxy or should it send it to the backend via LMTP ?

You need to send it to an lmtpproxyd, but there's no reason to put that on a frontend -- we run our lmtpproxyd's on the same hosts as our MTAs (via unix socket).
