   When you open a menu on the menu bar, such as the File menu, some of the   
   items may not be available for use. That item will be "greyed out", or   
   appear in a lighter color, usually grey, though that can vary by theme.   
      
   For example, in the Edit menu, the Copy command is greyed out until you   
   actually select something to copy.   
      
   In this case, Send Unsent Messages is greyed out, simply because there   
   are no messages to send.   
      
   The confusion as to your meaning was because you stated an important   
   part of your question in the subject line.  While a descriptive subject   
   is good, in order to receive the most accurate answers, its important to   
   state your entire question in the body of the post.
