I don't know the esound/audiofile/whatever APIs, but it ought to be
fairly simple to add support. Just add a handler to mail/mail-format.c
for the various audio/* types.

Actually, the best way to do this would be for someone to take some
existing sound player and bonobize it. (Or write a new one.) Then
Evolution could just do a lookup on the MIME type, find that
component, and embed it in the message so you get a nice sound player
interface without having to code one into Evolution. And of course,
the component could be used in other apps as well.
