Mail sounds?

Now that I have a NeXT, the closest thing to Fred Astaire on a desktop,
and not being a good programmer, I have 2 questions:
1. How can I make a .snd file play when mail comes in?
2. What would a crontab line be to play a snd file at a certain time?

The third question is, what is a good source for tips of this nature? I mean 
without having to ask on the Internet, etc.

Thanks
