| | spell check in windows mail For some reason it insists on American English as opposed to UK English. I have Word 2007 and this uses the UK English dictionary. How can I stop Windows Mail from trying to remove my 'U's and turning my 'S's into 'Z's (etc)? I went into options/spelling and the only languages I see listed are English, French, German and Spanish. How can I further define English? |

| | Re: spell check in windows mail It's a shame that MS has never caught on to problems their naming conventions have caused: Internet Explorer-Windows Explorer, Outlook-Outlook Express, Windows Mail-Windows Live Mail. I don't believe the OP is using Live Mail, just Mail.

Oh well, if the op is still on Mail now's the time to upgrade! |

You're implying that there's something wrong with Windows Mail. > > If the OP changed to Windows Live Mail then he would have a UK spell checker, something he doesn't have with Windows Mail. To me, being in the UK and needing a UK dictionary, that is an upgrade. |
