Although I don't think that an SMTP AUTH password is really sensible
data (its only use is to avoid open relays), it should be pretty easy
to add asking for a password to those tools. Either by piping it as
done with the crypto tools or by tweaking them to make use of pinentry
(ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/pinentry). Mutt would only need a hook to allow
refreshing the screen in case of a curses based pinentry.
