    Very minor improvement to personal mail notification in the Idle screen.

    I read that and heard in my mind "You've got mail!"

    I work with someone who has that as the email notification on their phone, every hour it goes off...

    I disabled both audio and vibration notifications on calls, emails and now texting. I'm actually one step away from turning off ALL notifications.

    Some moron I have to work with for a customer of mine is using Imesage on a Mac, so what he does is type one sentence, presses enter, another sentence, presses enter etc. over and over. This shows up as individual texts on my Iphone thus it just gets "stupid" with the noise and buzzing.

    I read that and heard in my mind "You've got mail!"

    I'm either old or crazy; probably both.

    I always preferred the WAV file of Homer Simpson saying "The mail! The
    mail is here! Oooooo." :D

    Used that at work for a while, but it got to be too much once everyone got email (and learned how to send it!).

    Maybe he's using the default "Send on Enter".
