cygwin version 1.5.16-1 (exim 4.50-1, minires 1.00-1, perl 5.8.6-4) attempting to run spamassassin (spamc and spamd)

[Eric D. Williams]

TIA for any help you can provide.

I am attempting to--and have previously for quite some time 
successfully--run the above mentioned setup on a Windows NT 4.0 EE 
system (yeah so it's old, ok).  In any event for some reason that set-up 
is complaining persistently for the exim transport I have named 
'spamcheck'.  Essentially, I consistently get the following messages in 
my exim_main log file, concerning 'spamcheck':


2005-05-04 01:19:09 IFXYBW-00003Q-DY <= sender-protected H=([127.0.0.1]) 
[207.199.136.153] P=esmtp S=1786 id=427822EC.6030703@infobro.com

2005-05-04 01:19:12 IFXYBW-00003Q-DY <recipient-protected>: spamcheck 
transport output: Minires: socket: Operation not permitted

2005-05-04 01:19:12 IFXYBW-00003Q-DY => recipient-name-part 
<recipient-protected> R=spamcheck_router T=spamcheck

2005-05-04 01:19:12 IFXYBW-00003Q-DY Completed

2005-05-04 01:19:12 IFXYBY-00006H-BF <= sender-protected U=spamcheck 
P=spam-scanned S=2106 id=427822EC.6030703@infobro.com
2005-05-04 01:19:12 IFXYBY-00006H-BF == recipient-protected R=dnslookup 
defer (-1): host lookup did not complete

running an exim -M message-id will cause the message to be sent 
immediately and correctly.  I think it is a permissions problem or 
something, but I am having a lot of problems attempting to identify 
exactly where.  I have straced (as SYSTEM) an instance of exim ... -bd, 
but that has not been helpful _to me_ it may help _you_.  If you would 
like I can make that available.  Here is my cygcheck output.  BTW, my 
system is set to GMT so it is a day ahead of this e-mail.

cygcheck info is attached.


My spamassassin logs no errors, even with debugging to full.  The 
resultant failure in transport causes all my messages to get 'stuck' as 
"deferred (-51)"
