Options/Automatic Spellchecking is checked and the status line at the bottom 
of Composer shows "Spellcheck: on."  Manually selecting Tools/Spelling shows 
the message "Spell check complete."  But no mispelled words are marked, 
including nonsense strings like "lakjdfh."

ispell is installed.  I can go to a command line and run the ispell program, 
which allows you to manually enter words.  Correctly spelled English words get 
a response of "OK."  MIsspelled words get a  response of "Not Found."  That 
seems to indicate that ispell is installed, the English dictionary is 
installed, and all is functioning normally.

Anyone have a clue why it's not working in Kmail Composer?
