It works for me with Thunderbird 0.9.1 which is available as an RPM from MandrakeClub or from Chip Cuccio's site http://norlug.org/~chipster/index.pxml?rpms (You may need to install xorg-x11-Xvfb before it will work) Thunderbird 0.91 supports extensions "Tools->Options->Extensions" not Attachments. To install the British spell checker go here http://dictionaries.mozdev.org/installation.html If you are using Mozilla or mozilla-firefox clicking on the spell checker will install it in mozilla itself. To install it in Thunderbird right click on the link and save the file somewhere in your home. Then in Thunderbird - Tools->Options->Extensions Press the 'Install' button and select the previously saved spell checker. :-) derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
