Growl isn't needed to do this, you can have events set to be spoken in Adium. If you check out MIke Arrigo's latest podcast that's up on BCT, he covers how to do this.

Hi all, just wondering, I installed adium, but what I want it to do is to read the incoming messages to me, and I thought, under events, in preferences, that it would be under received message, background chat, and since I didn't install growl, since I had heard of people having problems with it, I chose speak the event, but when I get a message, I have to interact with the unknown to the left of the contacts table, and go to the bottom of the window to read the message, and I wanted Vicky to read the events, so what am I doing wrong, and thanks in advance for any assistance. Also, is there a way in adium to have it display the off line contacts?Click on the link below to go to our homepage. http://www.icanworkthisthing.comManage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below.//www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover Users can subscribe to this list by sending email to macvoiceover-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxwith 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Webinterface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover
