hi Uday, I think I managed to set this up, although didn't switch yet.  one 
advantage may be that msmtp can get the needed smtp password from a system 
keyring/ keychain (on mac os x).  see

http://msmtp.sourceforge.net/doc/msmtp.html
 "Currently supported keyrings are the Gnome Keyring and the Mac OS X Keychain. 
The script msmtp-gnome-tool.py can be used to manage Gnome Keyring passwords 
for msmtp. To manage Mac OS X Keychain passwords, use the Keychain Access GUI 
application. The ‘account name’ is same as the msmtp ‘user’ argument. The 
‘keychain item name’ is smtp://<hostname> where <hostname> matches the msmtp 
‘host’ argument."

I wonder if this can also be used for incoming imap passwords in vm somehow...
