Hello,

When i do an error in the body part of a mail (or a news-post) i see the
bad word  red underlined with "~" characters.
Then i select this word and click on the "Spell" button -  i receive a
list of correct words where i can decide which one i want to replace my
bad word.

If i do an error in the "Subject" part of a mail (or a news-post) i see
also the bad word  red underlined with "~" characters.
BUT the "Spell" Button is greyed -  so unusable.

Two solutions to cure the problem:
1. Permit the "Spell" button to work.
2. Stop underlining bad words in the Subject.

What happens if you right click over the misspelled word?
I just tried it and in subject line it still gives me a list of
choices to change it to so that should work just fine for you.
I did try your method and do see the bug, but the work around in right
click over it, which IMHO is a better way to use spell check anyway.


Thanks for this workaround.....it works .... but the list obtained  by
the right-click is different than the list obtained by clicking on the
"Spell" button :-) :-)

It seems that the two spell checkers are separate - one "as you type" doing the red underlines, and one which works from a dialog when you click "Spell". I've also noticed an occasional mismatch in which words the two consider correct (word underlined in red but not flagged in the dialog, or vice-versa). Don't think I've ever compared the two lists of suggestions for a word they both show as incorrect...

I can't see that one reported from a quick search, so may be worth reporting.

Mark.
