Comment (by bl4):

 Thanks for your help. I've updated the patch to use PURPLE_SOUND_RECEIVE
 event. I wanted pidgin to play sound as if first message has come when new
 mail is received but now I see that it's disabled by default.

 Both account and NULL work for me as the second parameter. I don't really
 understand what purple accounts are but I think NULL should work in all
 cases so I've changed it too.

 I've also fixed a problem with tray icon. It changed when there was new
 mail, but it was restored when status changed. If you had auto-away
 enabled and you received mail while you were away, and then you came back
 and your status changed, the icon would show your status, not new mail.

 For those who don't know how to apply the patch (on unix-like systems):

 cd path_to_pidgin_source[[BR]]
 patch -p0 < path_to_patch

 After that you need to recompile and reinstall pidgin.
