I know you mentioned you didn't want mail-notify already but have you
really looked into it?  It doesn't "check your mail" a second time
around (necessarily) - you can set it to look at your evolution folders
instead of checking for mail.  That way it lets you know when the mail
has arrived according to evolution, but without actually making a pop or
imap connection itself.

It is available at http://www.nongnu.org/mailnotify/ for those
interested.
