In principle ssmtp is a drop-in replacement from sendmail, but it

On another angle for this discussion. Consider that for one M$ $FU 3.5
has sendmail. Before this many commercial solutions charging quite a
lot of $$ for sendmail under Windows. Microsoft even compiled a version
of sendmail for the earliest versions of Windows NT 3.51 long ago and
posted it on
test
client-server scripts/programs using a lot of Open Source, some on
cygwin, some outside of cygwin. I would want to test a REAL sendmail

cron does not use sendmail for mail delivery.
It uses a small program call ssmtp. Before
trying to get cron to send email, be sure that
it is working properly without it. Try a
simple cron job such as:
