Can't email from iPhoto.

OS X 10.8.2

iPhoto 9.4

iMac i7 [most recent]

When I type in the address in the address field it brings the address up. If I hit return or double click on it, the address disappears. If I get the address to stay, the SEND button is grayed out. I've deleted the email account settings in iPhoto preferences and then tried to send again. It asks to setup to use iCloud and then it won't send.

It works perfectly on my MacbookPro [Core 2 Duo 2.4 ghz] with the same software.

iPhone 4, iPad, Macbook Pro, Intel iMac, G4, Centris 660AV, 7600, SE w/4M & 80M, Mac OS X (10.6.4)

Just noticed that my Macbook Pro is still set up showing account type as MobileMe. I'm going to try to switch my iMac back.

I just noticed that I can send a photo from iPhoto on my iMac to someone else, but not to myself. Weird.
