More Apple ][*, //* II* and classic Macintosh hardware upgrades
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/14
The mini micro classic Apple emulators related post last week became way too big, so here is the classic Apple 2/Macintosh hardware upgrade part follow-up I announced in Some notes on mini/micro Apple //e emulators.
Last week, I mentioned [Wayback/Archive] ARC Javmaster – YouTube. Let’s continue from there for an even bigger post (:
Javmaster actually has a shop at [Wayback/Archive] Welcome to the 8-bit stuff store – 8 bit stuff cool retro computer 3D gadgets and geekery with a lot of interesting (mainly Apple ][ era related) retro things like:

Some notes on running Postfix inside a docker container
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/14
The plan was to run a Postfix secondary MX inside a docker container.
Below are many links that might help me to get that going.
For now, I think this is the shortlist of solutions to try:
- Docker Mailserver
- Mailcow
- Mailu

roehling/postsrsd: Postfix Sender Rewriting Scheme daemon
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/12
This finally made me perform the (long overdue) migration from Sendmail to Postfix:
The Sender Rewriting Scheme (SRS) is a technique to forward mails from domains which deploy the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) to prohibit other Mail Transfer Agents (MTAs) from sending mails on their behalf. With SRS, an MTA can circumvent SPF restrictions by replacing the envelope sender with a temporary email address from one of their own domains. This temporary address is bound to the original sender and only valid for a certain amount of time, which prevents abuse by spammers.
[Wayback/Archive] roehling/postsrsd: Postfix Sender Rewriting Scheme daemon
Via a long queste to figure out why Gmail every now and then bounces forwarded messages because of Sender Policy Framework (SPF). Below are a few of the links that brought me here in mostly reverse order, but first some links that should help me further on the topic of Postfix virtual aliases.
The sendmail setup had some features not covered below (like a catch-all forward for email to addresses virtual domains not covered by a virtual alias) which I hopefully can cover later.
One thing learned both over the past decades and related postfix material: use separate servers or containers for each of your functions. So do not mix web-hosting, outgoing mail, incoming mail, fail2ban and others on the same server.

ASCII Art Archive, my own ASCII signature, plus many FIGlet and TOIlet ASCII font art links
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/11
Earlier this year I bumped into [Wayback/Archive] ASCII Art Archive
This brought back instant memories about ASCII art, so in the future expect af few unfinished blog-posts that were in my “if I ever get to it archive” about it.
Let me start with my very limited ASCII art I used in late 1980s and early 1990s newsgroup and LISTSERV mailing list signature I reconstructed from a comp.virus post¹ having some very old contact data²:
o _ _ _ _ _ voice: +31-2522-20908 (18:00-24:00 UTC)
/ (_' | (_) (_' | | snail: P.S.O.
__/ attn. Jeroen W. Pluimers
P.O. Box 266
jeroenp@rulfc1.LeidenUniv.nl 2170 AG Sassenheim
jeroen_pluimers@f521.n281.z2.fidonet.org The Netherlands
Shortly after that, my main source of income moved from the command-line to GUI based tools, so I temporarily kind of lost interest in command-line tools and customs. In that period FIGlet (see below) got created, which I totally missed (though I vaguely remember the 1.0 version being named newban).
The link at the start of this blog post not only pointed me to FIGlet, but also has a lot of examples (like some [Wayback/Archive] ASCII Art Logos – asciiart.eu) of which many by ASCII artist Joan Stark, and also links to JavaScript based tools:

How to monitor USB power consumption? – Ask Different
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/10
TL;DR: it is impossible on a Mac to accurately measure power usage by attached USB devices. Only a general indication is possible, but it is unreliable.
[Wayback/Archive] How to monitor USB power consumption? – Ask Different
- System Profiler needs manual refresh and is a very rough indication
- iStatMenus is a graph, but not very accurate
- Activity Monitor is even rougher than the above

When Spotlight fails to find some files: mdutil revisited
Posted by jpluimers on 2025/11/07
On my M1 MacBook, somehow Spotlight started to fail returning some indexed files (especially recently added ones would not show up or it would take a very long while for some of them to show up).
So I revisited mdutil and related commands while writing a comment on the YouTube movie [Wayback/Archive] How To Rebuild the Spotlight Index on Your Mac – YouTube which since then vanished, but luckily I saved it and here I amended it with formatting:
