If you don't mind making the jump to syslog-ng it's fairly simple to 
filter ssh login lines to an external script that sends out emails. 
With stock syslog you could log auth to a named pipe and slurp that up 
with a similar script.

That said, hooking into pam as has been suggested sounds like the best bet.
