I recently did that for a VPN server, you could probably do something
like the following (after making the unlimited connection your default):

# Flush a route table (to make sure there is nothing in it)
# You can pick any number, I chose 300 

ip route flush table 300

# Delete the fwmark that we are going to use (0x50 is going to be used
here)

ip rule del fwmark 0x50

# Create the mangle table to mark source packets (SMTP for example)
# The --set-mark 80 is in correlation with the fwmark 0x50 (as 0x50 is
80 in hex)

iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -j MARK --set-mark 80 -p tcp --sport 25

# Do something similar for each of the SIP ports you want to open

# Set the default route for table 300

ip route add table 300 default via <your second connection gateway>

# Add the FWMARK rule to the table

ip rule add fwmark 0x50 table 300



You can easily MARK additional ports to send out the more stable
connection by adding more IPTABLES rules. 

Also, make sure that the ports have been opened in iptables so they can
get through.

Good luck,

Tait
