Someone sent me a song but I can’t play it (Spotify message: “You need to import the track to play it.”)

When someone drops one of their own MP3s into your inbox, we’ll attempt to match that track from the Spotify catalogue. If it can’t be matched, you won’t be able to play the track unless you also have it on your computer and have imported it into Spotify as one of your local files.
