That I had understand. The problem is, the exercise I don't know to
do, even I tried hard several days... call me stupid...

The setup is: pass 2 mail servers without NAT and add the traffic from
the LAN to WAN to the queue and limit it (or weigth it). 

If I add:

ipfw add queue 3 tcp from A to B 25 
ipfw queue 3 config weight 1 pipe 10 mask src-ip 0x000000ff
ipfw pipe 10 config bw 256Kbit/s

and remove all rules with keep-state, it stops working.
