A little more detail from discussion on IRC ...

The only themes that have the internet-mail icon at all in the 14.04 b1
default install are elementary-xfce and HighContrast. The other themes
lack this icon and will trigger the bug as described above.

In the /usr/share/pixmaps directory the following will fix it:
 ln -s ../icons/elementary-xfce/apps/128/internet-mail.png

Arguably a different size might be a better choice .... SVG icons would
be better still. :)

To solve this particular problem with the internet-mail icon one could
arguably place the creation of this symlink in the exo-utils package,
since it is responsible for the /usr/share/applications/exo-mail-
reader.desktop file. The same icon is chosen in the  /usr/share/app-
install/desktop/exo-utils:exo-mail-reader.desktop file which comes from
app-install-data. (Arguably the fact that there are 2 versions of this
file is a different bug.)
