I have used MinGW to compiled Mutt for win32 (gives a nice speed gain
compared to cygwin) by disabling most extensions and implement
workarounds for some calls to 'fork'. A quick try show that v2 of DJGPP
compiles it too, and with the DPMI server that follows I can run Mutt on
my old 386 with DOS-5, no Windows (and no network card:p). It's rather
crippled though.. wouldn't recommend it for your mother unless she is
used to Mutt and can't do without
