Speak arrival of new mail

Do you think it would be possible to set up Mail.app (maybe using some kind of Applescript) so that when new mail arrives in the inbox the computer speaks the name of the sender?

Just set up a rule (in the Mail preferences) that tells the app to play a certain sound when a message is received from that certain person. You'll have to record the name but the rest is easy. No need for Applescript.
