Mail alert sounds

I was just hunting around for some new mail alert sounds to make my mail client more interesting, and I found this neat little page with all kinds of mail-related sound bites from pop culture and elsewhere. My personal favorite is Homer Simpson excitedly saying, "The mail! The mail is here! Wooo..."

Right now I'm only using quiet non-voice sounds for incoming mail, but I've had a few amusing spoken ones set for you in particular in the past. Unfortunately I dare not list them for fear of retribution. *snicker* I can say that right now, the wavefile I have set to tell me you've signed on IM is Daffy Duck saying "I like him, he's crazy."

What format does Mac/OSX use for event association sounds? If it can handle .wav files, then I have more than enough I can share that are good for incoming mail, IMs, or just about anything else. :)

OS X uses all kinds of formats, including WAV. You'll have to send me your list. :-)
