Is it possible to route different applications through different network interfaces?
Let's say (hypothetically) I want to route /usr/bin/thunderbird through vlan0 but /usr/bin/firefox through eth0.
Is there a way? And if so, is there a graphical tool for it as well?

An easier solution is a custom routing to specific hosts, in your example, to your mail server.

Routing is done at IP level, which doesn't know anything about applications that are generating traffic. So I don't think it's possible.

1How is it possible then that with netstat -p you can see the program behind a specific network connection? – mydoghasworms – 2011-06-07T18:34:47.467
