Ok. So how did you set up your email to spellcheck before sending?

"English" would appear to be US English. Is UK English coming soon?

Hi Mick,

As far as I heard no. The replacement for Windows Mail, from what I
heard, will be Windows Live Mail. Maybe it will have it. ??

Well Carla I'm from old school and "Websters", may very well be your best
bet. We live in a woman/man vs. machine generation!

In my opinion, the current WM spell checker is much better
than what we had with OE. WLM's spell checker even checks
each word right after you type it, and if it doesn't like what it sees,
it underlines the word with a red squiggly line, just like Word does it.

Whenever you make a major setting change, it is always best to
close and then restart the program.

How do you fix the spell check? This is a ridiculous system you have.

We're having problems because once spellchck starts it's check you can't do
anything to get out that page. It's a dead end. Even if spell check does not
work correctly the only exit is to send.

When I click Cancel in the spelling window I get a choice of whether or not
to send. You don't?

RE : I really don't understand why people are having so much difficulty
finding this
If one thinks like a layman does, then it is logical ( for a layman's point
of view ) to look for spelling options when one is composing.
Therefore, one cannot find Options.

Well, when I just clicked on the "check the communities," the "language not
supported" error evaporated into thin air and now it works fine. Apparently,
it was a temporary error; this fits with the original post by Carla.
