Anything you can provide, it's not clear to the rest of us how many computers are involved. Is the web/mail server only the gatway, or is that the workstation that you're using (when, for example, trying to access the website)? What IP address are you using to access the web server? Its internal one, or its external one? Is the website supposed to be visible externally? It might also help to know which routes are set up by the VPN. Once you've connected to an OpenVPN server, it usually pushes a bunch of routes to the client (so that the client knows how to route to the VPN without caring about the details). A `sudo route -n` or `sudo ip route show` should suffice once we know which IPs belong to whom.
