The same problem for me. I have installed libesmtp
in /usr/local/libesmtp-$VERSION, made a soft link
/usr/local/libesmtp -> /usr/local/libesmtp-$VERSION
and further more have soft links for all the files
in /usr/local/libesmtp/bin|include|lib from the
corresponding directories under /usr/local.
Although /usr/local/libesmtp/lib is in my /etc/ld.so.conf
balsa's configure gives the above mentioned error.

I always "fixed" it by adding LIBS=-L/usr/local/libesmtp/lib
CFLAGS=-I/usr/local/libesmtp/include to the configure line.

The relevant parts of config.log are attached.

BTW, there's one more thing about configure that
always botherd me...

The file really does not exist.
