I am also working on one.  Yours looks much better than mime, from your
screen shots.

First, I don't like the idea of storing passwords.  I know, every user
will want this.  I don't like it.  I wouldn't put it in the code.

Second, rather than just a text box for the file to save the messages
in, I'd rather see it query IMP for a list of available folders, and
present that as a selection list.  Of course, if a folder was set in
the preferences, that should be the default folder.  But I'd rather select
a folder from a list than have to type it in (too many chances for typos,
etc).
 
Your work looks great, much better than mine.  I look forward to the
release of your code!
