If you want to compile libESMTP for the use with balsa you need to pass the
following argument to './configure':

  --enable-require-all-recipients
                          add extra API call, needed for Balsa (default=no)

Maybe you have forgotten to tell libESMTP the needed argument when
compiling it. Also, when compiling balsa under RH >=7.0, you need to pass
'--enable-more-warnings=no' or '--disable-more-warnings to './configure'.
