With the exim-config script it can be configured in 5 minutes and it can send offline mails. It doesn't even need to run as a daemon. MailDir works fine here together with 2cygwn managed mounts", see http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin/2003-11/msg00799.html and the thread around it. The perl LDAP-support for mutt works fine here, it compiled OOTB with the latest perl version from cygwin AFAIR. Gruss Olaf Föllinger -- Olaf Föllinger Berater S.E.S.A.
