| | Windows Mail - How Do I Edit or Delete Entry in User Dictionary I accidently "added" an incorrectly spelled word to (what I presume to be) the user dictionary in Windows Mail. How do I edit or delete that word? I am using Microsoft Windows Mail version 6.0.6000.16386. It came installed with Vista on my new computer. Thanks for any help. I posted my question in the wrong discussion group. Here's the previous message thread from that group that I was asked by that group's moderator to include here: Thanks Milly, I had typed "Windows Mail" in the search box, and thought that it had taken me to the right place. I'm not entirely sure how to post all replies since I'm way new at message threads, but I'll try to muddle through it. Thanks again.
