It's not a direct solution to your problem, but:
wouldn't it be easier to tweak your MTA to send a jabber message to the 
user when (s)he gets mail, instead of developing a plugin solely for 
Exodus, which (if I understand correctly) will check user's POP3/IMAP 
account on the server each N minutes to determine wether (s)he got new 
mail? ;)

IMHO, my way is much more flexible (i.e., you can use ANY jabber client, 
and still get those messages).
