No Mail Send Whoosh Sound

In an older thread an answer was given supposedly solving why the "whoosh" sound on sending mail disappeared. The answer was:

"Check Mail>Preferences...>General> ✓ "Play sounds for other mail actions," and System Preferences...>Notifications>Mail> ✓ "Play sound for notifications."

Well, I have all of those settings active and I still get no sound on sending mail.


How about an answer that works?

FWIW, sys prefs- notifications-mail, play sound for notifications only give you sound for incoming mails.


There are few things you can try to get send Whoosh back.

if that above not work, try:


Go to mail prefs: General- for new message sound put NONE.

uncheck play sound for other mail action.


quit mail app.


restart Mac.

now go back to mail prefs: General- for new message sound and pick a sound.

and check play sound for other mail actions.
