The package compilation fails, due to:
- missing function (res_query) during configuration
- See http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-04/msg00926.html for details
- incorrect usage of EXEEXT in makedat/Makefile
- missing crypt library in main Makefile
To correct the first and the second issues, apply the following [{{#file:courrier-authlib-0.61.0-cygwin.patch}} patch] before configuration.

Configure the package without most authentication modules keeping only userdb. Replace mailuser by an existing user name (in you /etc/passwd file). Note: I used my own username.
$ ./configure --disable-root-check --with-waitfunc=wait --without-authpam --without-authldap --without-authpwd \ --without-authshadow --without-custom --without-authpipe --without-authmysql --without-authpgsql --with-mailuser=mailuser \ --with-mailgroup=mkgroup-l-d --enable-shared=no
Take a long pause... and when ready execute the following command. The LDFLAGS and LIBS variables are used to correct the 3rd issue.
$ make LDFLAGS=-lcrypt LIBS=-lcrypt
