I suppose that the formatting of the code by the email program has gone
awry!

It should read:
externalGraphic: "marker.png"
//externalGraphic url from attribute url use "${url}"
all in one line, it is a comment.
The meaning of the comment is that you can use the path of an image:
externalGraphic: "marker.png"
or a variable that will be substituted by a value connected to a feature
or a file:
externalGraphic: "${url}"

You can find an example here:
