Sorry, there's nothing obviously wrong that I can see.  But if this truly
was working a week ago and you didn't change your Cygwin installation at
all (configuration or otherwise) during that time, I would suggest looking
at things that changed external to Cygwin.  For instance, have you performed
any Windows updates?  Fiddled with or installed any firewall or anti-virus
software?

FWIW, your 'cygcheck' results show that 'exim' is not running.  This is
consistent with your claim that the results you're seeing are causing 'exim'
to fail to start.  Perhaps it would also be worthwhile to detail your
installation and configuration steps for 'exim' and the message that you
get when you attempt to start it with 'cygrunsrv'.
