An alternative would be not to look at your mail while
downloading it. 

Is there any reason for not crossposting your message to a
procmail list, eg [EMAIL PROTECTED] or
[EMAIL PROTECTED]? The number of people on both
procmail and cygwin lists must be very small, but the procmail
developers (ie Philip Guenther) should be made aware of the
autoconf problem.
