Hi!

What way can I pass env var "CYGWIN" to the Cygwin service?

There are no that many influential options here:

I can think of "winsymlinks:native" or "wincmdln".

Process Explorer shows following env vars for Cygwin's Exim process:

  PATH
  SYSTEMDRIVE
  SYSTEMROOT
  WINDIR

I configured it with "exim-config" and it is in the list of:

  cygrunsrv -L

I'm not sure if it is served by cygserver:
