Just thinking out load here and to get some feed back and ideas of the community.

Looking around my 900 file system and I see that the email alert is stored at, /home/user/.user-emailtone which is simply a file that tells the system what tone to play and where the tone is located.

What if you could intercept the incoming message and based on the From email address you could redirect to different emailtone file of your choice?

Does the current email client have a log file that all incoming and outgoing request are logged to? If so could you read that file and catch the incoming header and then divert the email alert to the tone file of you choice?

If you can figure out the dbus event that is raised when a new email comes in, you could use dbus-scripts to play a specific tone per user.
