Funnily enough, I never got to grips with Turnpike when I first started
up with Demon. Thunderbird has been my email client of choice since it
came out. I do admit to problem with version 3 and those damned "smart"
folders (a bit like Word's Smart quotes in a way, neither of them are
smart in the slightest!). Tony had similar troubles until I told him how
to get back to normal folders. (Click the< or> arrows on the first tab
until the caption says "all folders" - job done!)
Yes thanks for that and life has returned to normal.
I *loved* Turnpike in every way. Their depth of matching (using
regexps) was extraordinary.
I only stoppe dusing it as it did not support IMAP.
I have not found how to turn on the speal chucker which is a pain
because I can't type fro toefef - there see what I mean ?
I have a similar problem. But even after about 30 years in IT, I still
look at the keys when I'm typing, not the screen.
For spell chequeing, there's a button at the top of the "write" window
that spell cheques the selection or the entire email.
To spell as you type, edit->preferences (on Linux anyway - mayne
tools->options on Windows) then Composition, spelling tab and tick the
"enable spell checking as you type".
I have that set but it doesn't spell check. Looks like a bug (3.0.4).
