I ran through all the help suggestions (including the profile removal). The computer I am having trouble with is Lion 10.7.5. I have it also on 10.6.8 (snow leopard). I am about to give up and start using this computer (10.8.5) for mail - pain in the ..... to have to move everything!

Check to make sure you have an email address in the "TO:" box. Until there is an email address there, the Send button will be greyed out.
