>Any ideas how Emailer made up the erroneous icon?

If there was no Type/Creator code that came along with the attachment 
(and there wouldn't be if it came from a PC), then Emailer lets the Mac 
make the decision as to what file type it is. It will use the File 
Exchange settings in your control panels.

If there is a 3 letter file extension that is what File Exchange goes off 
of. If there is no 3 letter extension, than it will default it to Unknown 
type. But I have seen it rather than choose Unknown it uses some wacky 
off the wall choice instead. Not sure what makes it decide to choose 
something silly... maybe the programmers put a random "just to make you 
go humm" feature in there.
