At work I must many times to forward or redirect a mail.
And many people like to forward "cool" mails to their friends.

Examples:
- A user has registered himself in a page and need to check the "confirm" 
mail.
- A user has bought a travel and need to print the ticked he will receive 
attached in a mail.
- A user asks by mail to somebody about an important problem, so he needs to 
check manually the inbox.

  Do you think these apps could look better without the icons text?
