Playing audio from Raspberry PI3 to A2DP speaker

Basic steps from Arch Linux wiki , with a small Raspbian specific kludge from StackOverflow : Create /etc/dbus-1/system.d/pulse.conf: <!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN" "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd"> <busconfig> <policy user="root"> <allow own="org.pulseaudio.Server"/> <allow send_destination="org.bluez"/> <allow send_interface="org.bluez.Manager"/> </policy> <policy user="pulse"> <allow own="org.pulseaudio.Server"/> <allow send_destination="org.bluez"/> <allow send_interface="org.bluez.Manager"/> </policy> <policy context="default"> <deny own="org.pulseaudio.Server"/> <deny send_destination="org.bluez"/> <deny send_interface="org.bl

Apple Mail.App alternatives

Notes to myself on experiences with alternatives to standard Mac OS email app. Apple Mail behavior of downloading all messages and their attachments from all remote IMAP folders is unacceptable on a laptop. Postbox - Very high latency on all UI widget operations on a Macbook Air - feels like operating on a remote desktop Airmail 3 - UI feels quick, but is highly asynchronous. You never know if the view represents the server state. - Undo operation doesn't really work - Customer service refuses to understand the issue Sticking with Airmal for now.
