When I type "zcat /etc/setup/ssmtp.lst.gz", I get the following output:
Wed Mar 14-10:50:09 / 536$ zcat /etc/setup/ssmtp.lst.gz
etc/ssmtp/
etc/ssmtp/revaliases
usr/bin/ssmtp-config
usr/doc/Cygwin/ssmtp-2.38.7.README
usr/man/man8/ssmtp.8
usr/sbin/ssmtp.exe
I.e. No conversion of line-feed to carriage-return/line-feed.
Should I change the mounts? They are currently set like this:
Wed Mar 14
-10:50:18 / 537$ mount
