Play Random Sounds for E-Mail Notifications?

An anonymous reader asks: "I, like many of my fellow Outlook-using geek friends, like to set funny sounds to be played when a new message arrives ('Leeroy Jenkins' is the one I have set now). However, we have always wanted to be able to have random sounds be played when a new message arrives, rather than the same sound over and over. I've searched high and low, and I was hoping Slashdot could suggest/write a program that can randomly play sound files from a specified folder when a new message arrives. Any ideas?"

why the FUCK

are you asking about outlook on slashdot?
go use thunderbird.

Ooh! What a great idea!

[Datoyminaytah]

I like! In fact, I like it so much, I think I'll assign random sounds to ALL system events!

Another paid attempt to get Slashdot readers to hate Microsoft less.

I thought I had seen it all but, this is BY FAR the lamest Ask Slashdot I have ever seen. The Article needs to be moderated -5 Banal.

How to rotate notification sounds? In Microsoft Outlook?? On Slashdot????

Dear Slashdot, how can I cause this person to receive a severe electric shock everytime a new message arrives in his Outlook inbox?

No Problem

Be glad to help - just give me your e-mail address and I'll send you over an executable. I'll even be so nice as to include an MD5 hash so you know its secure.

Try a free program

from Claria [claria.com]. Nothing makes a Windows PC do random shit faster.

This is better than the Ask Slashdot I submitted..

This is better than the Ask Slashdot I submitted, where I wanted to find out a way for thunderbird to play a random sound every time my RSS feed picks up a new Slashdot story.

I settled for comic book guy saying "Worst. Slashdot. Story. EVER."

Surprisingly its true every time!

Dear Slashdot, Should I have Pop-Tarts or cereal for breakfast?

Slashdot (makes poor attempt to answer question but just ends up rambling): First it really depends on whether we are talking about frosted, non-frosted pop-tarts and of course we have to account for flavor variety. Second what distribution of cereal are you using since some varieties have more technical merit than others. In my not so humble opinion Cereal in general is the better technical choice since it provides 19 essential vitamins & minerals to get a good start on the day. On the other hand nobody knows what Pop-Tarts contain (other than something called high-fructose corn syrup) or what they provide you with from a nutritious diet point-of-view.

QED (end ramble) Cereal obviously!

You're prolly the ones trying to change your outlook sounds lol
