Opera Browser

david boylan · 06-08-2008

Has anybody started using the Opera 9.5 beta browser? i took a look at it and it is very fast , some things i don't like the RSS feeds and i can't get the spellcheck to work but the main problem is the mail , if anybody understands how to get the mail to work please post , i have opened a Opera web mail account and all that but you have to open a mail chat account i assumed you just put your new mail address in there doesn't seem that simple .
Cheers Dave

Been using it for testing for a long time - I prefer Fx but keep O beta because it promises to be a lot better also.

Hi Dave
You have to download GNU Aspell 0.60 and English Dictionary from GNU Aspell to get the spell checker to work.
whenever you type anything in a text area,you right click and do the spell check.
Reading web mail is still a problem for me and many others,if you go to Opera Forum you will see it for yourself. HTH.
