Is it really possible to run a Linux version on Windows, without
running Linux in a VM, but just using Cygwin? JFTR the Cygwin port link
on http://www.claws-mail.org/downloads.php?section=downloads is a dead
link, "550 /pub/cygwinports/release/GNOME/: No such file or directory".

I found this Cygwinport
http://artfiles.org/cygwin.org/pub/cygwinports/x86/release/claws-mail/
providing
