Hi,

I tried what you said but, there is just one thing.  this only works if the 
mail app is open and in the foreground.  I mean, if this is the case, it really 
doesn't matter much in my opinion.  If your in the mail app all ready, its just 
a 2nd to see who sent the new mail.  I thought you meant the alert would 
replace the default tri-tone that occurs when a mail message comes in when the 
mail app is closed or, your phone is locked.
