>I need to run scripts through cron, but not have cron report errors to the local network mail host, which seems to be sent addressed to "Administrator AT xxxx DOT org".   This is causing the real Exchange Admins to get a lot of mail they don't need.  I've basically broken my ssmtp configuration by commenting out the line which defines the mail host so no mail can be sent, but obviously don't want to live with this.  

Define a MAILTO variable in your crontab, and look at man 5 crontab.
I'm sure I said this to someone yesterday.
This is not a Cygwin thing.
