Perhaps it should be GTK_STOCK_CLOSE, but it's actually  
BALSA_PIXMAP_CLOSE_MBOX, which is defined to be  
"balsa_close_mbox" and is associated with balsa_close_mbox.xpm.   
The idea may have been to have a different icon for closing a  
mailbox from the standard gtk stock close, to provide a visual  
distinction, but if so, it's not used consistently--the  
Mailbox=>Close menu item uses the gtk version.  I just tried  
replacing the latter with BALSA_PIXMAP_CLOSE_MBOX, and it works  
nicely.

I believe that's so.

Balsa tries to find a gnome-mime-*.png icon to represent an  
attachment's mime-type, but the scheme seems to be broken, so you  
may not be able to theme those until we fix it!
