It actually is my solution to running Sendmail: create the Sendmail user, called 'smmsp' and make it an Administrator, so it can impersonate users on my system. But I don't like my solution, because this would mean I have to create an admin-user for any Linux service that I install. So now my Cygwin setup would be crowded with highly privileged daemons, listening, waiting to get hacked. The more elegant solution would be to create only one secondary privileged user, let's call it 'root' ;-).
I believe what you're referring to here is 'cyg-server' which Cygwin already has.
