Another workaround would be from the mintty window to enter some

(Various archive searches were unsuccessful.)

cygstart <path to cmd.exe>

(Sorry about the top-post. Haven't figured out yet how to
coerce Outlook to cooperate and don't want to type all the
">" characters manually. Suggestions welcome.)

Tools->Options->Email Settings.  There are options there to enable the
">" character.
