AFIK, Snort and ACID do not support real time email alerts.  If you are using 
Linux, swatch (Simple log WATCHer) will monitor your system log and send you 
an email as soon as snort (or any other regex you specify) writes to the 
system log.  I don't know if there is a similar approach for windows.
