Hi Mary, If you have one of the new Macs that supports the Power Nap feature, if you go to system preferences and to the energy saving preference, turn off Power Nap by unchecking the box and reboot, your mail sounds should come back. I found that for some very strange reason, the power nap feature sometimes kills the mail sounds. I turned off power nap and the problem completely went away for me. I am using a 13 inch retina MacBook Pro.
