Unlike the similar menu in the Finder, Mail’s “Open With” menu does not display the version number if multiple copies of an application are available:

Open With menu fails to display version numbers when multiple copies of an application are present

Icons would also be nice for additional consistency with the Finder, but the version number is more important.

    I believe to fix that you have to rebuild the launchservices database. Onyx can do that (and other system tools should too).

    I believe it is a difference in how the menus are implemented that would require code changes to alter. Rebuilding the LaunchServices database with Cocktail yielded no changes.
