Hi I am reading through your documents but maybe in the meantime you can help me by looking at what I wants tot do. Ok here we go. I have a 128kbit line to the internet. As previously mentioned it is coming in through a cisco router. I also have a linux server which has two NIC. Eth0 is connected to the router and eth1 to the LAN. I have a few workstations connected to the LAN. The linux server do masquerading for the workstations. The linux machine also serves as mail server. I need to shape the mail that is coming in from the internet to 25% of the bandwidth available and also wants to shape mail that's being sent out from the workstations to a maximum of 25% of the bandwidth available. This is in short the first thing I want to do. If you need more info would you please let me know.

I wrote some documentation about it. You can find it on docum.org. Maybe you missed it ;-). If you didn't missed it, mail some more information to the mailing list and we will try to help you.
