Any way to turn off that annoying music when a new message arrives :@ I have already unchecked the items in Play A Sound when new message arrives, but the music still persists.

If you are using Windows, there is also a Windows sound which plays when a message arrives. You should be able to turn that off in the Windows Control Panel.

Thanks for the suggestion, but it's not a Windows sound, which is just a short musical note. What I am talking about is like an entire opera!

Do you have any Thunderbird extensions installed?

No extensions that I know of. I assumed that music was a common (standard) feature of Thunderbird.

Check Tools>Options; Advanced tab; click Config Editor.. button; filter for 'sound' and ensure that mail.biff.play_sound is 'false'.
If so, my guess is that your profile is corrupt. Maybe try backing it up (browse to C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles\ on Windows XP/2000 or C:\users\[User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\ on Windows Vista) ; you could simply move the profile (make sure Thunderbird is closed) and on the next launch when a profile is not found a new one is created and you can try a fresh start.

Turn off your speakers.

I finally found the solution. In Thunderbird, select the menu Tools --> Spamato --> Configure Spamato On http:://localhost. Select "Sound" from the menu in the left-hand pane, then change the radio button to "No Sound".
