Spell check is checking original text in reply/forward

1.) Under Always Ignore heading, I have put a check on The original text in
Reply/Forward, but it is still checking the original text. It even check the
spelling of names on the TO and From of the Reply/Forward columns.
2.) I have e-mails which often contain foreign language. When I FORWARD
those with my message in English , a pop-up box will ask if I want to send
Unicode, As Is, etc. Spell check is NOT supposed to check that. Right ?

Re: Spell check is checking original text in reply/forward

WLM sometimes has difficulty telling original text from new text,
especially if you do something like change the format from HTML
to plain text.

Also, I've been complaining for years already that it should not
spell check the subject line if that is existing text, but MS seems
unconcerned about that bug.

No...

It *should* spellcheck the Subject Line.

That is a very welcome improvement in WLM and should be continued.

It's not a bug.

Thank you.
For your information, I always use HTML on regular e-mails.
Plain Text is used ONLY on newsgroup forums.
