Is there any other alert than sound e.i screen nudge or something appear on the screen when the new email message arrives. Although I have hearing impaired and cannot hear the sounds. I understand the number of unread message will appear on the icon sitting on the dock but it is too small to be noticed. Thank you for your assistance.

Erik Hinterbichler's free 'Herald' is an elegant solution to this:

It pops up a configurable pane when a new message arrives, displaying the opening text. You can close the pane or delete the message. Note that when running it you should minimize (command-M) not hide, Mail or the Mail window will open as well.
Apple Mail-new messages sound
