You can also just redirect receiving email from a public facing SMTP to an internal SMTP server which also runs IMAP.

This is actually how usual Postfix+Dovecot setup works in practice. Dovecot runs an LMTP server which is SMTP with some minor modificaitons. Postfix forwards messages to Dovecot's LMTP.
