if an object constantly checks for email every 5 seconds or so, would this cause much strain on the sim?

If you are worried about lag you can throttle back the polling if you havent received anything after say 20 seconds or 4 or 5 updates. Just change the timer value. Then when it receives one restart fast polling.

ok, and the corollary question: is there a way for the object to react when it receives an email -- without using the timer feature to check every X seconds?

Not using email, unless there's a trick I haven't seen.
