Probably your firewall is blocking any communication.

The configuration looks fine. I don't use the old version of uw-imap anymo=

(the one distributed through Cygwin), but I do use the latest (which compil=

out of the box). There was no problem with using the old version, I still =
think
its your firewall (Windows firewall).

I don't get any log output from inetd, so this is strange (and TBird is ope=
ning
and closing several connections all the time, imapd does send some output to
syslogd).
However, 0x3500 is probably Windows' error 53:
$ net helpmsg 53
The network path was not found.
Since I assume /usr/sbin/uw-imapd.exe does exist (no need to put the .exe),=
I
have no idea what is wrong, perhaps "C:\Cygwin\bin" is not on your global
(Windows) PATH and the required libraries (.dll) can't be found.
