English term or phrase: You’ve got mail.
As we reached Fifth Avenue’s intersection, a familiar three-tone sequence sounded from inside Nick’s jacket.
“You’ve got mail,” I said.

This sentence is a humorous reference to AOL's voice notification that's played when a new email message comes in. The notification comes in right when the guy is kissing the girl.

What would be a good translation into PT-Br? AOL is the acronym for America Online. Thank you all.
