I don't have modest so can't really help you out but have you tried setting interval to 0? You should also sleep before restarting mce and stopping modest. WIthout the sleep it might not work at all or only work sometimes.

You should also dig through gconf-editor and find other keys that might be related to the auto-update or interval. There are some keys that ASUI must set both instances for them to work.

Code:
const char *conf_screen_autolock1 = "/apps/osso/applet/osso-applet-display/lock_screen";
const char *conf_screen_autolock2 = "/system/osso/dsm/locks/touchscreen_keypad_autolock_enabled";
const char *conf_screen_stayslit1 = "/apps/osso/applet/osso-applet-display/display_charger";
const char *conf_screen_stayslit2 = "/system/osso/dsm/display/display_on_with_charger";
Does modest provide a UI to change the interval? If so, you could monitor dbus activity to see if it sends out anything that you could use.
