You sent it from what SMTP server? If you do as I do and use smtp.mizzou.edu with TLS encryption and a login, you can use that SMTP no matter who your ISP is. It is a local resource on the MU network and should work when you're doing a VPN. If you use another SMTP server, such as mail.mchsi.com, it should not send. A VPN should block the Internet from the connection so you don't introduce the Internet into the local network through the VPN gateway. My information might be outdated, but this is at least the way it *used* to be.

My Internet connection never dropped. I sent my first email with the vpn connected.

I did the same from the CLI and found that even though it said I was connected (and my Intenet connectivity dropped, which is a sign of a working VPN), I could not mount local shares or browse the network either. Something funky going on?

OK I have installed vpnc (and a K gui called kvpnc) and I can get it connected to vpn1. My problem is that I can not get anything to connect. I try to mount a smb share to iats-tiger using smb4k and I got a routing error. So I added a route (route add -net 128.206.0.0 netmask 255.255.0.0 dev wlan0). Now I do not get the route error but a failure. Another bit of info. I do not have a tun0 device listed when I do a ifconfig. I know that I am close to getting this working I just do not know what I am doing wrong.
