Exim (recent versions) seems happy with Cygwin...including the necessary 
option to build message IDs in base36 rather than base62 to avoid collisions 
between upper and lower case letters (the message IDs are used as file 
names).  That in principal allows ID collisions for other reasons, but 
seemingly not in practice.  (Mac OS X needs the same thing, for the same 
reason.)
