We say Henry and I know each other, but Joe introduced Henry and me.

"...me and Henry" should be used if this group of words describe the object of the sentence. For example, "He gave it to me." "Me" is on the receiving end of the verb "gave," making it the object of the sentence. When Henry is added, he is still a part of the object.

The pronoun "I" is a subject, which performs the verb. "I will go to work," for example, has "I" doing the action. Again, even when Henry is added, the words work together as the subject. If you have trouble deciding which way to write it, remove the proper noun and look at the pronoun alone. Do I want to say, "Me got it in the mail," or "I got it in the mail?" For native English speakers, the correct answer will sound right as well. Then simply add your proper noun to say what you want to say. In this case it is proper to say, "Henry and I got it in the mail," because "Henry and I" are performing the action in the sentence.
