Email notification sounds based on contact

Has anyone had any luck with setting up a default tone and then setting specific email contacts with a different tone using third party apps? It looks like the Gmail app can only do this for it's own domain (gmail.com), through use of filters. Saving a contact with just an email address and setting a ringtone doesn't work; it only applies to inbound calls. My setup may be a bit trickier since I need it to work with Exchange and ActiveSync. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
 
I couldn't find a way. I resolved it by creating an IFTTT applet that turns around and texts myself for a particular contact's emails.
