   Your router does IPv4 NAT, doesn't it? So every machine will get an RFC1918   
   IPv4 address won't it?   
      
   Have you configured your mailers to only use the VPN tunnel for IPv4?   
      
   Oh well, who cares, IPv4 is technology on the way out. In ten years it will be   
   a non-issue anyway. ;-)   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
