Via the “Play a Sound” rule action, you can hear who is emailing you.

Double New Mail Sound

Outlook Mac Osx

When a new message arrives, you could now hear a double sound; the default Outlook sound and the one we just configured to play via a rule.

Additionally, add the condition “stop processing rules” action to the rule we created for the specific contact and sort the rules in such a way that the rule for the specific contact is listed above the one for playing the generic sound.

To disable the default email sound in Outlook go to;
