I suspect you're seeing two different (sets of) actions Email To... and Email Item... which are similar but different. They're used as followed: document Email To... Howard Howard Email Item... document
check the Email section for details. Or it could be a bug that sometimes the icons are wrong. This sometimes happens with the mail actions or in the first pane with URLs or in a few other places. I usually describe QS as easy to use but not intuitively obvious. There's a lot there and it's hard to figure out. This compelled me to write the manual and made structuring it difficult. I included the "How To Read this Manual" section at the front to help explain what I did. But given such a question you should be able to search the manual for the action name or skim the table of contents for the topic (email would be a good guess in this case) and jump there to find everything on that topic. Unfortunately the Actions preferences section in the manual is still TBD.
