6.2.1 is sooo old... Maybe these old options work for 6.2.1... You could
give it a try
// To change the sound played when a new mail arrives.
user_pref("mail.biff.use_default_sound", false);
user_pref("mail.biff.sound_file", "<path-to-your-file>");
// for example on Linux the above line could be
user_pref("mail.biff.sound_file", "/usr/share/sounds/ktalkd.wav");
// and on Windows it can be
user_pref("mail.biff.sound_file", "C:\\WINNT\\Media\\ring.wav");
Pratik.
