Traffic Shaper on outgoing emails?

hi forum,

ASG220 with exchange 2003 behind. mail security activated - everything is fine, except when a newsletter is send out. the mails are in the SMTP spooler on the ASG and delivery is in process - this cuts down the complete internet traffic, meaning that even opening a website is not possible anymore. 
the uplink is on it's limit (512kbit/sec)

is there a possibility to shape down the traffic, e.g. that outgoing mails from the ASG must not take more than 256kbit/sec, so that surfing is still possible while mails are delivered?

if so (and i think there should be something like that) it would be great if someone gives my guidance.

thanks
GrEEtz

  • That looks right.  Why don't you think things are working?  William's right that limiting also works.  If you want to prove that to yourself, use the Email Messaging group instead of SMTP to test (and don't forget to put the limit back on[;)]).

    Cheers - Bob
