I was thinking along the same lines; yes, please do post it.

One thing I don't like about libmutt (besides all the globals and such)
is that it hardcodes TCP socket logic.  I would prefer to have a POP3
module that would call a networking module to do all the "real work".

While I'm throwing out ideas, I would also like to add a progress dialog
for Check New Mail, like Netscape's.
