for the question of how to add a subject announcement, add these lines after the first say:

set subjectMsg to (subject of newMessage)
say "regarding " & subjectMsg

for some reason, doing the sets then using one long say garbles the voice, while splitting it up adds works well, at least on my intel imac 10.5
