Maybe it's not a good idea to describe it as a fork of Mutt, when

It's a large set of feature patches." :)
Well, I copied the text from the homepage, so it seems to be
inconsistent. AFAIK the code has been forked and enhanced/patched and
something merged back, but just to be sure I'll ask the authors what
they would prefer as description.
You can name your .cygport file just "neomutt.cygport"
Renamed.
You need to provide at least --prefix=/usr to ./configure (currently
everything is being installed into /usr/local, not /usr), and possibly
others to satisfy the requirements of [1]
[1] https://cygwin.com/packaging-package-files.html#package_contents
I updated the neomutt.cygport file and passed all parameters as
described in [1], I'm unsure if localstatedir and infodir are really
supported since they do not appear in the "Makefile.autosetup" file (but
they do appear in the "system.ctl" file...).
I'll need to investigate it, maybe neomutt defaults are the same with
those required (for example, the default for mandir seems to be the same
as the required path), or maybe they are not used at all.
