Sound for new email

I use Opera mainly as an email client.
It works really great, but I do miss a sound when a new email arrives.

Please, implement this feature!
thanks

Hi Serious,
thanks for your fast reply.
But as you can see in this image

I can choose other event to play a sound (startup, exit, page loaded, etc) but I can't add a sound to the event "receive an email".
I just can have "visual" notifications on my desktop (the first checkbox) but not "sound" notifications.
Am I wrong?
Thanks

sorry, my bad, I thought there was also a "new mail" entry there, must have confused it with another program sad

no, you don't.

Look at mailpreferences and the options for the mailaccount, section Incoming, last entry (you can select a soundfile for every mailaccount!). this setting is there for years...

Thank you derDay, thank you both.
I was getting crazy on the general preferences...
On the contrary I can use a single sound on any single account. And I checked that box, but I didn't choose a sound to play...
Ok and thanks again!
