Peter, What do I care? I have MS office for the spell checker. As far as submitting, after wasting time trying to figure the new program and fighting with it for days, I usually don't have time to follow up after it. I switched OE to only read in plain text, so I will probably just stay with OE.

Jeff, you have overlooked that OE does not come equipped with it's own spell checker unlike most other free email clients. Why MS chooses to leave one out is beyond me, it's purely marketing but it's not user/customer friendly either. Have you submitted this issue to the T'bird developers community? It could be a possible addition in the future.
