Something like "cant execute command" but nothing really helpfull

Does anybody know an easy command, which can be executed by sylpheed, to play a sound (e.g. the same as the builtin client) when new mails arrive?
If possible a "small" command, not something big as mplayer to play a sound.

You can apt-get install gstreamer-tools (IIRC) which gives you gst-launch which you can use to play something through gstreamer.

Hang on, let me find the appropriate diary entry... ah, here: http://www.bleb.org/writings/diary/&month=01/2006#07

HTH,

Andrew

New version of Sylpheed available.

All windows are integrated (although not optimised), so the next step before putting it in a repo is modifying the defaults to be more sensible; and making the other configuration windows scrollable.

Comments, as ever, welcome.

Andrew, thanks for continuing to work on porting Sylpheed! Nokia did a lot of things right with the 770, but the email app definitely wasn't one of them. I greatly appreciate your continued efforts and look forward to using it when it is end user ready.

Wow, it's great, thank you!
But can you please make interface & message list fonts smaller?
I believe it will instantly add a lot to usability

That would be very helpful!
Thanks

It's on the todo list, but I'm not sure how easy it is (I've not looked at it at all).

I'm just using a theme with smaller fonts at the moment (but I think they could be smaller still in the Sylpheed window)

A next/previus-mail button in the mailwindows would also be helpful.

I'm afraid adding new stuff is further down the list than just improving the port; adding it as a feature request on the upstream Sylpheed is more likely to get it done:

Admittedly, once I've sorted some of the issues with the current port, I'll move it forward to the current version, 2.2.10 which may well have some of these features.

Any patches against my Subversion repository are, of course, welcome.
