Yeah, I'm actually using LANG=C.UTF-8. Thought by abbreviating
for the post that my message would be more focused on the
problem at hand. :-/
Another workaround would be from the mintty window to enter some
command that would bring up a Windows Command Prompt window so
that Windows FTP and Telnet would work. I tried the command "cmd",
but that executes within the mintty window. What command can I
enter from a mintty/bash prompt to open a Command Prompt window?
(Various archive searches were unsuccessful.)
(Sorry about the top-post. Haven't figured out yet how to
coerce Outlook to cooperate and don't want to type all the
">" characters manually. Suggestions welcome.)

That's a non-supported setting. set LANG to C.UTF-8 or en_US.UTF-8
or something. See http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/setup-locale.html
