Active Mail uses the same accounts and identities dialog as KMail, which is
a QWidget based dialogue. So basically for the main part of my project I
have to re-write this functionality as QML on top of C++ API, right?

And apart from that all the functionality that I mentioned in the above
mail, I would be implementing if I complete that on time.

I will be preparing a mock up for the accounts config dialog as fast as I
can.
