Because this is the cygwin mailing list.  It is the rule that discussion
must go on past the point where there is an obvious solution.

The solution here, is, of course, for someone to package sendmail and offer
it as a cygwin package following the rules which are documented on the
cygwin web site.

Hmm.  I think it is time for me to send my "You know you're a cygwin user,
if..." email.
