Yes, Claws-Mail needs to be running for it to be able to collect mail.
You can use the 'Run command...' option on the Receiving page of the Prerferences to run a command when new mail arrives. For example you could use /usr/bin/play-sound

Hi. How do you get that play-sound command working, in my N800 there's no sound when new mail arrives in claws-mail?

Are you using a format that play-sound can deal with? Have you set Claws to run the command after automatic and/or manual check?
A command you can use is '/usr/bin/play-sound /usr/share/sounds/ui-new_email.wav'

I used that ui-new_email.wav sound but still no sound. I have automatic check on but how you can choose that manual/automatic check thing? There's only possible to choose how often it checks new mail, I have 15 minute interval.
do you have a sound file name and located /usr/share/sounds/ui-new_email.wav
Yes it is, I tested it in xterm with play-sound command and it worked but not it claws-mail. I think I have it wrong in claws-mail because I have use it with path and with no path, like: play-sound /usr/share/sounds/ui-new_email.wav but nothing happend. I don't understand. Is there in path possible something wrong but again why play-sound command produce sound in xterm? I'm little bit confused, seems easy to add that command but still I can't get it working.

I got it! So simple solution: just close and start the program and that's it. Sorry for these silly questions but I hope somebody else learn from this.
