Perhaps an explanation or example of your customer's definition of
"shipping" vs. "freight" will help.  Both terms should really refer to
the same thing (postage cost) and should be handled by the standard
mechanism.

If you have an example of where "shipping" is different from "freight"
then it would be interesting to see it.  Understanding this difference
will make it easier for people to offer advice.
