I'm glad to read the the cygwin provided mutt does support Maildir since
I use a home brewed build which does. The patches for this did I find on
the cygwin mailing list.
Unfortunately the mutt version 1.4-1 doesn't find the cygcrypto.dll and
cygssl.dll while there are only cygcrypto-0.9.7.dll and
cygssl-0-9-7.dll. If I rename these dlls mutt dumps and I didn't test
any further. But I would like to use a cygwin-supported mutt with
maildir support to.
