I don't know if you are aware or not, but it does not appear to 
work as the message editor with Mutt. Emacs does not start, 
instead "Fatal error (11).Signal 11". This is after setting 
emacs as EDITOR="emacs" in .profile. Maybe it is something to do 
with where Mutt places the temporary file (in my case on an 
entirely different drive, f: - /cygdrive/f/Temp/filename) but 
that is just a guess. It starts fine from the command line, even 
"emacs /cygdrive/f/Temp/filename".
