Already had my pot today. :)

Evolution 1.4.4.0.200309030600 snapshot does display this correct: There
is a text-style icon (.txt) and a blank sheet icon for the unknown .xxx
extension.

FWIW: There was a patch since 1.4.4 that enables this nice icon display.
I have seen at least patch icons, mp3 and even thumbnails of jpeg files
using the snapshot -- none of them with the official 1.4.4 release.

Evolution 1.4.4 (official release) IIRC always displayed a default icon,
regardless of the type of file.

This applies to the composer and received mails.

I can provide screenshots, if you like.


I did not change anything in the Gnome file extensions. This is an Evo
only issue / patch IMHO.


Does this answer your question? I even can easily revert to official
1.4.4 to make screenshots as well.
