Not sure what you mean entirely, but you can get Poseray and use Maya to
export .OBJ files which can then be converted and used as mesh objects in
POV scenes.  However if you mean you'd like to be able to render using POV
directly from Maya then no, I'm not aware of such a plugin.

Try 3DWin - you should find it easily on Google. I regulary export from
Blender into Wavefront .OBJ format and then export using a very old 3DWin
binary into Povray.

You may have forgotten but If I remember Correctly 3DWin needs to be
registered (at a cost) else it does not handle materials.

Dunno - I found it on a CD I dug up in the back of my CD case that I got
about ten years ago - the version I have (not sure which one) does not
mention materials at all anywhere I can remember. Can it handle materials?
Haven't checked its site (ever) - the 3dwin I have is just a binary, no
other files with it. Can't even remember where I got it... - Univ complab?
Or somesuch.

3DWin has gone through a few versions since then. As Loki suggests
Poseray is an excellent tool to convert meshes to Pov includes. It
also makes UDOs for Moray as well.
