Get the audio-xbiff and make your default mail sound the "mail man" sound; but
that's a limited use of the audio-xbiff.  It matched regular expresions in the
header, I've got a *ton* of sounds defined (over 100...) in my .Xdefaults!

I got the audio xbiff from expo.lcs.mit.edu, it is probbly on other X archive
sites.
