I know that Apple has not provided any documentation on the internal API used for the plugins/bundles....

Is there nothing out there that gives a brief set of guidelines?

Was this documented in NextSTEP? Is it similar?

Nope... and Nope.

I want such a minor enhancement, but am struggling with a way to provide it. Our users are so used to Eudora under MacOS9 where it always popped up a dialog box when you checked mail, whether you had mail or not. I would like Mail.app to do the same thing, so after a mail check (manual only?) it would display a dialog one way or the other.

There are some mail bundles for Mac OS X around, and some have source. that's probably the best option.

You could accomplish this with AppleScript BTW... at least when mail is present, using rules. And you could also use AppleScript to add the ability to manually check and then put up the dialog box. It'd be a different activation though.
