When I click on the read mail button in IE8, nothing happens. It should open OE. Is there a fix for this. Thanks!

Open internet explorer, click on tools menu, select internet options, go to programs tabs and select outlook express in email options.

Thanks but I already tried that. It's almost like there is no "communication" between the button and OE.

Try what is suggested in the following link (it is for IE7 but the same would apply to IE8):
