"But what still puzzles me is why the alternator was not charging when I ran the car with a drained battery, and then came back to life after I trickle charged the battery?"
I think the alternator is excited by voltage through the alternator warning light (as previously mentioned). Once excited the alternator should produce. You haven't mentioned if that warning light is turning on with key switch on but not to the start position.
