This avoids a lot of repeated "you've got mail" if you have multiple messages arrive on startup.

self.lastSoundTime = datetime.datetime.now() should be called when the sound is actually played, not when it might be played. Otherwise, a message every 30 seconds will keep sounds from ever being played, rather than the intended result of having a sound played at maximum every 60 seconds.

I think.

I wrote it deliberately that way so that the time is reset whenever a message is received. That way if you have a lot of messages being received a sound will only be played if a new message comes in 60 seconds after the last message was received. I can alter that though and make the time shorter or longer.
