Thunderbird munged the file, but Mail received it OK.

The unusual thing about this TriMesh is that some edges involve points 
that are not in any of the faces.

It looks like E3TriMesh_OptimizeData will also do the wrong thing with 
respect to point-fill style, since points that do not belong to any 
faces go away.

I'll try to fix it this weekend if not sooner.
