yep, my housem8's bridging firewall runs FreeBSD

 Ever since I installed the gateway, and firewall on the Freebsd machine,
 (56k dialup) I am unable to send attachments to my e-mails? I use k-mail.
 Everything else seems to work fairly well, although I get an unusual number
 of failed emerge sync runs.

emerge sync or any other type of connectivity is ok for me.  I also use kmail, 
no problem with the attachments though.  I have DSL though, havent used 56k 
for yonks (luckily), but im thinking this is less to do with BSD or its 
config, and more to do with dialup, fone line or your isp.

Unfortunately ive never had to do a ppp session on Linux so I couldnt offer 
any advise, but it sounds like some sort of dialup problem to me.

HTH

 I am however able to send attachments if I select 7 or 8 bit instead of
 64base on k-mail attachment propertys.
