    Not sure why it's grayed out, but just copy and paste the URL in your message, then send it.

    Just fixed it. Solution is: go to default program in control panel. choose "set program access and computer defaults". Choose custom. Next unselect "use current web browser" and select ie8. Do same for email. Click apply and it's fixed.
