Add the following lines to your PROFILE's "prefs.js" file, close Mozilla

  user_pref("mail.biff.play_sound",true);
  user_pref("mail.biff.use_default_sound", false);
  user_pref("mail.biff.sound_file", "<path-to-your-favorite-wav-file>");

user_pref("mail.biff.sound_file", "C:\\sound\\getmail.wav");
