Bug Description

Unity Mail IMO should have a better looking icon. The current one seems too plain.

Currently UM uses Postler icon from Elementary theme.

Couldn't you make it fetch a generic mail icon from a currently used icon theme? Faenza theme for example even has a specific gmail icon.

In first versions UM used "applications-mail" icon from system theme. It's not very good because Faenza's icon with such name displays "Evolution Mail Client" on the "stamp", and not all themes have such an icon.

And GMail icon is completely unsuitable, because not all people use GMail :).

I still want someone to draw something better.

I have added a separate icon for Faenza. The hicolor version has been also replaced. I am marking this as fixed, although everyone is still welcome to request/suggest/contribute icons for various themes.
