I wonder why this should be a problem. The file does exist on my system and it 
should be readable and executable to groups root and  SYSTEM:

$ cd /cygdrive/c/Windows/system32
$ ls -l winmm.dll
-rwxrwx---+ 2 ???????? ???????? 194048 Nov 20  2010 winmm.dll
$ getfacl winmm.dll
# file: winmm.dll
# owner: ????????
# group: ????????
user::rwx
group::rwx
group:root:r-x
group:SYSTEM:r-x
group:Users:r-x
mask:rwx
other:---
$ 

Perhaps I should add explicit ACLs for users SYSTEM and cyg_server?

Cheers,
Gustav

Pierre:

I was able to replicate the problem on Windows 7:
The delivery process crashes because it can't load winmm.dll

16:06:33  3572 writing data block fd=6 size=1 timeout=0
      6 [main] exim 3572 C:\Program Files\cygwin\bin\exim-4.76-1.exe: ***
fatal error - unable to load C:\Windows\system32\winmm.dll, Win32 error 1114
16:06:33  5620 LOG: MAIN PANIC
16:06:33  5620  failed to read delivery status for phumblet AT phumblet-lap01w
from delivery subprocess

So it's a Cygwin issue... I think it has been discussed before but I am not
sure if there is a solution.
