I'm not crazy. Well, at least I don't think I am. Every once in a while I hear the new mail sound. I usually always have Mail running and I've never heard the new mail sound when it wasn't running (phew - I haven't lost my mind yet). But,when I check Mail there aren't any new messages! In fact, just before posting this thread, I heard it and the last new mail message I had received was over an hour ago. There aren't any unread messages either.

Has anyone had anything similar happen to them?

Do you have junk mail filtering on? If so, are there unread messages in your junk folder?

I do but I have a rule to trash them immediately. Perhaps that's causing the sounds then. If so, is it possible to disable new mail notification sounds when I receive them?
