Greetings, Joachim Weimann!

> until some time ago I was able to send emails from Cygwin using the
> email-command. My provider has recently made the following changes:
> - The use of STARTTLS is mandatory.
> - TLS versions 1.0 and 1.1 are no longer supported.

> One of these changes has caused the email-command to stop working. I have
> added the parameter "USE_TLS = 'true'" to the .email.conf-file.

> Are TLS versions 1.2 and 1.3 supported by email?

> How can I send emails from Cygwin in a simple way? Which packages are required?

> I have been told that configuring sendmail is quite complicated.

I can help you with 'email-command', but my experience with ssmtp and other
relays was quite good in the past.And at least ssmtp supports modern ciphers.

If all else fails, you could always try the stunnel reverse proxy to wrap the
communication.
