        * mail-session.c (get_password): Proxy get-password call to main
        thread.
        (forget_password): same for forget_password.
        (get_filter_driver): and same for get_filter_driver, since it uses
        gtk objects.

        * mail-mt.c (mail_call_main): new generic interface for calling
        stuff/proxying in the gui thread.
