I specified a wave file to be played when there is new mail. This works (when I
have esd running, which wasn't easy to find out on a non-GNOME system, and which
keeps making problems when suspending the machine) - but the new mail
notification sound is also triggered when I move a (read) message out of my
Inbox into a subfolder of "Inbox", which is annoying, especially when you're
moving several mails in a short time.

Suggestion: no new mail notification sound when moving mails out some folder  -
that is, evolution should distinguish between mails incoming from the mail
server and mails moved manually by the user. Or, better yet, you should be able
to set a sound specifically for a folder. Combined with filters, you could have
a special sound if your girlfriend writes something (and that mail is put in the
folder "sweetheart"), a different sound if your boss writes something (and that
mail is put in the folder "nuisances"), and no sound when a mail of a Debian
mailinglist comes into the mailinglist folder (which occurs quite often).

Keep up the good work, Viktor.
