Not wanting to go off topic too much, but I am wondering why you try to go to the trouble of getting courier-imap to run on Cygwin at all, when there are so many virtualization application available for Windows as well.
After all, it's well known that Cygwin does not and for some aspects simply cannot support the full POSIX API and is also really slow, depending on what you do with it. Cygwin is a wonderful thing for the desktop to play with, but it is a production ready replacement for a standard conforming POSIX Unix environment that ensures every little part of courier-imap is run the same way as on the real thing? I wouldn't rely on that. A fully functional and robust email infrastructure tends to be pretty important for many people, if you are among that group, why not simply install your favourite distribution in your favourite virtualization system on your Windows server and be done with it? ;) The extra main memory overhead shouldn't be more than a couple of 100MiB.
