Default email icon greyed out in Office Home and Student 97

It's not worth it, Milly. I tried to help him and he decided to take a chunk
out of my butt. He obviously doesn't want help. He wants to kvetch.

This is a peer-to-peer forum - if you want the official Microsoft response,
then you can write to Microsoft product support services.

From the Microsoft Office 2007 Home and Student page:

Are there license restrictions to Office Home and Student 2007?

Yes. Office Home and Student 2007 is licensed only for noncommercial use by
households. It cannot be used in commercial (business) situations.

FYI - non-profit is considered a business.
