email box greyed out in Word 2007

email box greyed out in Word 2007 -if I type a letter and then go to
send to- the email box is greyed out.

How can I fix that so the document just goes to Windows Mail and I can
send it along- this seems like such a normal task and a major screw up
on their part

I'm starting to have doubts about the newest software -Vista, home and
student office, windows mail

My old system with XP and old office functioned fine

I'm finding bugs in this new stuff

and idea how to get the greyed box operation without registry edits and
crazy stuff
