Thanks.  The rxvt problem was the shortcut used the -e option with a 
windows path and, well, I'll have to do the reinstalls and take another 
look at why ssh (and sshd) isn't working for me and do the reinstalls as 
you suggested to try mutt.  I do really appreciate all the effort that has 
gone into cygwin and use it every day both at work and at home.

Dunno about that.

Right.

You didn't follow the installation instructions for ncurses.  Reinstall
libncurses5, libncurses6 and terminfo but not ncurses6.

Yes, no problem.  Even sshd is working.

Not working for 9x/Me.  Raw block devices and tapes are supported
on NT/2K/XP only.
