Yikes!!!! I haven't found any one of those sounds to be of much use for
anything. They're too soft and wimpy. They tend to get lost in the mild din
of a working environment. As well, since there are so few of them, and
only a couple that might offer any real use, in an environment where there
are a few people working together, one can easily see how things could
get very confusing wondering which computer is announcing what.
I need my "shotgun", "44magnum", "crack of the whip", etc.. that are
percussive enough to cut through when played at low volume instead of
getting lost in the sound of the cooling fan no matter how loud it's set.

OK. Still looking to figure that one out. Thanks. But it would be
easier to
have an actual setting for this. Or at least more clear; certainly more
flexible.
I'll check into getting this set later.

One thing that could take it way beyond where it is would be a switch for
"only, and, not, but not, or" and have at least two options PER line with
that switch in between,
as in:
If mail comes to account "A" *AND* comes from person *56* move message to
folder *X* instead
of the default that it would normally go too.
If mail comes to account "A" *BUT NOT" from person *22* don't play
account default sound, move
to folder *B*, print text, save attachment as file to disc folder
*documents*, send auto response,
discard message.
I mention "discard" as it is used as opposed to "delete" (move to trash).
Discard being the
function where the message is COMPLETELY deleted. NO trace. No pit stop
in the trash, removed
from server. GONE, DONE, OVER. :-)
This had actually become THE most used button on the toolbar of my old PC
email client. I miss
it like I would my left arm (I'm left-handed). :-)
Thanks a bunch Jerome.
