There were some strong opinions expressed on both sides about whether sendmail is a good thing
or not...but the bottom line is that no one has offered to maintain sendmail as a package under
Cygwin. If you want to do that, I don't think that anyone would stop you. There is presently a
direct replacement available under cygwin.
Why is this thread living on?
Thanks,

On another angle for this discussion. Consider that for one M$ $FU 3.5 has sendmail. Before this many commercial solutions charging quite a lot of $$ for sendmail under Windows. Microsoft even compiled a version of sendmail for the earliest versions of Windows NT 3.51 long ago and posted it on their ftp server. Other companies made sendmail-look-alike programs that could be scripted.
There is demand there, but it is not so obvious.
