That should be the job of something like gnubiff - you want an app which
polls your mailbox and tells you there is mail pending collection.

Since you probably manually tell gnus to fetch mail it doesnt seem
appropriate that it beeps when it gets mail since you will see it anyway
in the Group buffer.
