If you don't need notification right inside your xterm, Simon, you might look into an X-based utility like xbiff or xmailbox. They watch any mail file you tell them to -- for instance, the /var/spool/mail/simon file, the inbox folder (file) in Netscape, and so on. If you do need notification in your xterm, you'll need to do some checking of permisions and other things -- as Neil and Dan said. This is tricky stuff sometimes.
