complete "play sound when new mail arrives" pref UI.
Untill implemented, add manually in prefs.js:
user_pref("mail.biff.default_sound_url","file:///G|/mozilla/boing.wav");
(windows syntax) - pointing to the disk and wav you prefer.
Be aware of bug 94522 "UI not responsive while playing the new mail

Windows taskbar integration for mail notification is bug 18729
Similar for Linux/KDE: bug 18731, and Gnome: 18732
Similar for Mac: bug 18730
