It works fine for me.  Just tried it.

You've been reading the cygwin mailing list long enough to know that you
have not provided the slightest shred of useful data

Bobby, either provide useful information or just shut up.  Telling
everyone what you are going to do or not going to do and insulting
people is totally unproductive.

Do me a favor and don't even respond to this email.  Either provide some
details or just be quiet.  Useful details might be, for example, "ps -ef"
output.
