No,
Looks more like it's coming from Chrome ?
I can't reproduce it using ie10.

[jimnycricket]

TEST

It's interesting neither of these email accounts are actually gmail addresses,
But the symbols are showing the icon on "Your company logo" account ?
Meaning it might not be your primary and the icon on the tab is showing this can be changed in your mail settings.
It could also mean it can be changed in your Tab browsing settings ?

 

[jimnycricket]

They are google hosted company email accounts. It's not a major deal. I was just curious to see if this is common for others. I bet it will go away in a timely manner...

 

[ThrashZone]

Possibly that's the Icon the company picked out to show on the tab instead of the traditional gmail Icon ?

 

[jimnycricket]

No, I am only admin to the email... My guess is that this was part of accidental download (a search engine, malware, etc.)

Is this your company logo ?

Yes, that is my company logo. I was referring to the icon on the tab - it looks like a yellow wrench around a blue daisy flower.

As a test what does the icon on the tab look like after you get a new email message,
Send one to yourself to test.

Yep, good find maxie.

Thank you for contacting Google Apps Support. I understand you want to know more about the favicon you noticed on your Gmail.
This is actually supposed to be the favicon for the Google Apps Admin Console. It is definitely nothing to worry about. We are working on deactivating it for the moment and expect to have the favicon back to the mail symbols with the colored M by the end of the week.
Please be aware this is just a cosmetic icon and in no way has there been any security issues in the appearance of this favicon over the last few days.

And what it is supposed to be associated with,

Cloud Technology: Google Apps: gets way more mobile for superadmins

Maxie wins! He solved in once and for all...

Anything that shows up in the tab listing is generally a Chrome issue,
The existing question Maxie found on the Chrome support forum was pretty obvious/ gotta love people who use the Title as a questions content,
Which you should always search the Chrome or gmail support forums first especially when it's a custom domain through these services,
Cheers.
