Is it possible to use two gateways, one from a fixed ip provider (hathway) on my eth1 and the other from dial-up (vsnl) on my ppp0 (modem)
Use special domain routing.
For your mail server, add vsnl as a gateway, for everything else, set hathway as a gateway.
Something like this:
route add -host ip_of_your_mail_server gw vsnl_gateway dev ppp0
You may have to have one line for each ip of your mail server (since vsnl's mail servers have multiple ips (load balancing)).
Put this in your dial-up scrips to replace the global routing command in there.
In your hathway ifcfg script (eth1), leave it as it is.
