I use Mac Mail as my email client and I am more than happy with it apart from the sound alert for new mail.
Following some research I found that, in theory, if I had an .AIFF sound file of my own I should be able to drag and drop it into the Sounds Folder contained in Mackintosh HD/System/Library but it will not accept it and shows the 'No Entry' sign.
When choosing the Sound Alerts in Mail the only files I can access are those contained in the Sounds folder.
Is there a different way of getting my own sound file into Mail or, am I doing something wrong in the way I am trying to add my own sound file to the Sounds folder?
Not a life threating problem but any assistance would be gratefully received.
