Use upstream's newer utilities-terminal. (Used for generic terminal stuff, as well as Xfce's "Default Apps" terminal icon)

Use former utilities-terminal for Xfce Terminal. Update with newer style rounded-corners, gradients, semi-transparent borders. It now better matches the upstream Xfce Terminal icon.

This gives people a choice for different terminal icons (upstream's can be hard to see in dark themes, esp at smaller sizes). In Xfce you can use the "Default App" "Terminal Emulator" and see upstream icon, or use "Xfce Terminal" for the updated/refreshed icon.

Left to right: Current, Upstream, Updated/Refreshed Current
prop1
(another option with the right-most icon refresh using the upstream $ symbol, but I kind of like the symbols being a bit different)

Fix:
Update internet-mail at 16px. Made larger to now be the same size as all other Xfce "Default Apps" icons (seen in Xfce Applications Menu), use semi-transparent borders for sharper look on dark themes.

Use upstream's newer `utilities-terminal`.

Use former `utilities-terminal` for Xfce Terminal.

Going to go ahead and merge this and the ristretto PR, no objections after a few months.

I do have a slight issue with the borderless terminal icon here being harder to see on dark backgrounds (esp the small size in the "Applications" panel menu). But it is upstream. And if it becomes an issue for people it's easy enough to change in the future, and should be addressed upstream if possible.
