thanks for all the replies already given, i'll try fiddling with the bw 
a bit...
i already hooked them to a slower bw al together, but I'll try to limit 
the bw even more for every non http/s / pop & smtp traffic... is there a 
site somewhere to test speeds at other ports than http - or should I 
just use iperf on for instance at my office (out the vpn that is)...
