Re: Changing cygwin directory


No, sorry, the reply is not correct.  The "Reply-To:" header field points
to <cygwin at cygwin dot com>, so the reply should have gone there.  Your
mailer should prompt you for this (or do it automatically), but it
shouldn't ignore this header field.  AFAIK, Yahoo does it automatically.

As for the help, you are welcome.  Most of the thanks goes to CGF, though.
