The thread at https://github.com/theZiz/aha/issues/20 suggested a case-insensitive regex through sed but the exact suggestion failed for a few reasons I will explain below.
First the bash alias (requires both aha and perl):

Right now my sendmail configuration handling my domains have one queue directory /var/spool/mqueue which means that each round of the queue processing handles all the outgoing mail in succession.
This is getting less OK because of the increased mail volume over time both on mail that gets in and needs to be forwarded and mail that needs to be bounced for various reasons like SPAM.
So below are some links helping me to sort out various things including having multiple queues (as then each round can handle each queue in parallel).
The default sendmail configuration is one mail queue and I hope to find out for what reason that is.
The goal of this book is to document known and unknown methods of doing various tasks using only built-in bash features. Using the snippets from this bible can help remove unneeded dependencies from scripts and in most cases make them faster. I came across these tips and discovered a few while developing neofetch, pxltrm and other smaller projects.
The snippets below are linted using shellcheck and tests have been written where applicable. Want to contribute? Read the CONTRIBUTING.md. It outlines how the unit tests work and what is required when adding snippets to the bible.

From one of my scripts: it will find a 64-bit 7z.exe if it was installed as part of the 7-zip installer, then run it with the parameters provided to the batch file.

:: registry trick from http://www.robvanderwoude.com/files/sortdate2_nt.txt

if not exist "%sevenZipExeFilePath%" call :showError "No 7-zip executable at %sevenZipExeFilePath%" || goto :help

Since it was not possible to install PowerShell 3 on ancient Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2003 R2 machines, I opted for this workaround during the time they were being retired:
I’ve investigating how much work it will be to migrate the machine, as opposed to adapting the scripts with Poshcode/Jaykul modules (of which many have external dependencies that I’d need to check first). It’s about the same order of magnitude, so I’ll be migrating the machine earlier. In the mean time, a different machine will run the scripts and access the required data over a network share.
