Wow! Thanks for that deep thought. :-) I knew that. :-) I have been using
Cygwin since 1999 (sometimes more than others). I just thought that by now,
Windows would have started playing nicer and had made enough changes to be
friendlier to POSIX. Long story, but I need to use Cygwin for this. Thanks,
though.
Sorry - hard to know whether one is dealing with a "newbie" or not.
In Thunderbird, I sort by "Correspondents" and see he has been posting since at
least 2019, you can also search "From, To, Cc, Bcc" or similar for the surname,
and on the web e.g.
https://inbox.sourceware.org/cygwin/?q=Cabrera&o=-1
shows 1998 - earlier than even he remembers ;^>
