  You are using the output of cygcheck to provide a list of filenames for ls.
But cygcheck is a win32 program, so it outputs the list of names with
dos-style CRLF line endings.

>> No such file or directoryssmtp-config

  What it's actually printing here is 

/usr/bin/ssmtp-config[CR, no LF]:  No such file or directory.

and there is of course no such file as "/usr/bin/ssmtp-config^M".  Solution:

ls -l $(cygcheck -l ssmtp | d2u)

    cheers,
