[pptp-server] pptp uses wrong adapter

Hello group

I have configured a poptop server to share file successfully. I dial up
to my ISP, establish a VPN connection to the poptop server, and share
files. I want to be capable of reading mail using the same method,
routing IMAP packets through the VPN tunnel.

But when I do a retrieval, the client uses the PPP adapter which
connects it to my ISP. Whatever method it uses, I don't know, but it
sends IMAP packets to the poptop server with the SrcIP the one assigned
by my ISP. This is then denied by the firewall on the server.

Does anyone have any idea of what is going on ??

Any help is appreciated.
