Dave,

First off, please configure your mailer to not quote raw e-mail addresses
in your replies -- the spam harvesters have it too easy as it is.

Secondly, nutch is not an official Cygwin package, and so isn't supported
on this list.  Try asking on a nutch support forum (if there is any), or
look at the nutch documentation for the appropriate contact point.
