This seems to happen to me, when I use mutt to send mail. Sendmail does not
get startet.
But here there is no SYSTEM acount involved. I tested under the same
account as I
installed Cygwin.
Under exact the same configuration of Cygwin under XP there is no problem.
Is this
problem solvable, will it be solved soon?

I think the same problem could arise on Windows XP with the upcoming
service pack.
