Hello again,
it seems that sylpheed and libreoffice-writer (can) use the same
dictionary: hunspell-it (for Italian spell checking).
I thought that this dictionary was usable only with libhunspell, but I
was probably wrong.

And it seems that the regression I reported was introduced by the
upgrade of hunspell-it (which, on my system, happened on January, the
6th):

  [UPGRADE] hunspell-it:amd64 1:7.0.1-1 -> 1:7.1.0~rc1-1

The [bug] has been reported against package hunspell-it and
subsequently fixed in version 1:7.1.0~rc2-1 of hunspell-it.

[bug]: <https://bugs.debian.org/979439>

I've just upgraded to hunspell-it/1:7.1.0~rc2-2 (currently in Debian
unstable) and I can confirm that it fixes the regression:

  [UPGRADE] hunspell-it:amd64 1:7.1.0~rc1-1 -> 1:7.1.0~rc2-2


Feel free to reassign this bug report to package hunspell-it and to
forcemerge it with the already closed bug report #979439.

Sorry for reporting a regression that was not actually caused by
package sylpheed!
And thanks for your time and patience.
