    You can set up an exception. Profiles>advanced>menu button>new exception

    then name the exception, in the from field pick the contact you want to be alerted from (trackball, add name, select from address book) set the tone and save

    I would test it out to make sure its working well before relying on it. Just test an exception from you (send emails from home to bb) and it if works remove your name and add the real contact you want to be alerted from....... just my .02

    Good luck

    how would i do it if i was being emailed from a website? do i just find out what address there emailing me from and then just name it as a contact and put it in the phonebook?

    Ahh from a site. That might be an issue. I guess if you have an old email from them, if its that same address you can add that to the address book and give it a shot....
