% CygWin is GPL-ed, according to their FAQ.  (Although I don't quite
% understand how they can sell CygWin 1.0 for $99 w/o any download

What about the free version available at sourceware.cygnus.com?  I know
that B20.1 is downloadable, since I got it...

% Today I somehow managed to build Mutt 1.1.4 w/ CygWin B20.1 and ncurses

Oooh; cool!


% 5.0, however it isn't fully functional (it dumped core on me a couple of
% times).  It would also be nice to have binaries for fetchmail (does it
% compile on CygWin?) and perhaps ssmtp.  I don't have much time for
% playing with all this at work, though (and I don't use Windows at home).

I wouldn't know the first thing about how to get anything built, but I
sure would love to use mutt locally to make an IMAP connection back to my
real mail system...
