Many people use their computers with an email client operating in the background. This is so they can receive messages in a timely manner. When concentrating other things, though, you may forget to check your email regularly. Outlook and Windows Mail include settings that let you receive an audible "New Message" notification. This sound plays when a new message comes in.
