Dear Gentoo Friends,

I'm using netqmail1.05-r8 on gentoo for my mail server. I have a 4Mbps link.
When i sending a >10MB mail, mail service getting the full up link bandwidth
to send it. So, I want to assign 50% of the up link bandwidth to the mail
service. Please help me.

The Linux kernel supports various traffic control mechanisms. You should use the iproute2
'tc' tool for traffic control under linux.
For more information see:

If you dont like to configure tc by hand you can also try the shorewall firewall package:
