gmime should be used whenever possible. preliminarily i'd say mh/maildir
and sendmail will be the core of libmutt code moved to libbalsa. i like
the way libmutt virtualizes stdio - that is a very strong point but
i'm not sure how it fits into gmime and libbalsa yet. 
the rest of libmutt is mime parsing and imap.
