i'm filing this because it was working in 1.4a and is broken in 1.4rc1... this is a feature that many enjoy and use...


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. preferences->mail_and_news->notifications-> custom .wav sound
2. browse or type in a .wav file to play with path
3. wait for new mail to arrive or click on preview buttom

Actual Results:  
the default beep was played

Expected Results:  
played the selected custom .wav sound

its wierd how it gets broken from one "release" to the next... currently this is set for the PC platform but i suspect that it applies to all platforms... i also note that it doesn't show up in the frequently reported bugs list and neither does it show up in the search provided at the top of this guided bugreport form... i was able to locate some similar bugs but they were for older releases like 1.2 and 1.3... as i said before, with this being a release candidate, i felt that it was important that it be taken care of...
