We have what I believe are very clear instructions for asking for help with 
Shorewall - they are at http://www.shorewall.net/support.htm#Guidelines. They 
specifically ask that the output of 'shorewall dump' be forwarded *as an 
attachment*.

Trying to look at a dump that has been folded, spindled and mutilated by your 
mailer is no fun; and a mail reader is certainly *not* the ideal tools for 
examining this type of complex information.
